This message has been marked as the solution to the initial question of the thread.
>I've just yesterday found out that my monitor is capable of doing 1600x1200, and I'm now enjoying a lot of pixels and a greatly enlarged work area... except there's one thing nagging me.
>
>I've arranged my command window to be docked to the right, with the overlapped Properties, Document View and Data Session windows in the lower half. My command window is about 300 pixels wide, and with the font I'm using in it, it fits about 40 characters in a row. This should be enough for most of the uses... except when it comes to reusing one of the Modify Command lines. Since I'm retrieving them from the MRU list, they are too long, because they show the full path. What I see in the command window would be just enough if it contained the relative path (or no path at all), but as it is, I'm seeing a dozen of "MODIFY COMMAND M:\work\company\appl" and the rest is hidden, unless I scroll horizontally.

Hi Dragan,

That "annoying problem" happened to me also <g>
Try download this List MRU ( file #16740 ). The script was created using VFP7, so I'm not sure if it works properly on later version. You might need to modify the code.
