>how to list the recent documents using API????

Check registry
key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
value: Recent
for the location of the Recent documents folder.
After that use the SYS(2000) function to retrieve list of shortcuts.

* Retrieve lcRecentFoldrPath from registry
* ....

* Display contents of recent documents folder
lcRecentFile = SYS(2000, ADDBS(lcRecentFoldrPath)+'*.*')
?lcRecentFile
Do While !empty(lcRecentFile)
   lcRecentFile = SYS(2000, ADDBS(lcRecentFoldrPath)+'*.*', 1)
   ?lcRecentFile
EndDo

Instead of using the registry you may utilize the CSIDL functions (SHGetSpecialFolderPath, SHGetSpecialFolderLocation, SHGetFolderPath, SHGetFolderLocation), but they are Shell32.dll specific (depend on version of windows and version of IE, so on old OSs w/t old browsers they may not be accessible). Also for SHGetSpecialFolderLocation or SHGetFolderLocation (most recent - since Windows 2000) you will need some structures to call them from VFP. So that you will need to make structures like string and probably will need Struct or ClsHeap
