Is there a way to clear this? (Not disable it, just clear it out.)

Word 2002, SP3

Thanks.

Hi Peri,

You could set/clear the corresponding Registry key:
System.ProfileString("Options", "NoFontMRUList") = "1"
((Restart Word))
System.ProfileString("Options", "NoFontMRUList") = "0"
((Restart Word))

But you probably can't clear it while Word is running.

Thanks, Klaus. I was hoping it would be much simpler than that ;-) .

Manipulating the combo box font dropdown directly with a macro doesn't seem
to work:
CommandBars("Formatting").Controls("&Font:").ListHeaderCount = 0
(...this gives an error message)
