Re-read your post and realised you are refering to Program History not Document History.

This is for WinXP. I presume XP Pro is the same?

Program History
In WinXP you have to:
Right-Click start menu -> Properties
¬the Taskbar and Start Menu Properties Box Appears
Click the Start-Menu Tab
Click the Start Menu Radio Button
Click Customise Button (Spelt with a z )
¬the Customise Start Menu Box Appears
Click the Advanced Tab
There should be a number-scroll box in the middle labelled "Number of programs on start menu"
Make sure that box has a number and OK it.

Should start listing them then.

Document History
In WinXP you have to:
Right-Click start menu -> Properties
¬the Taskbar and Start Menu Properties Box Appears
Click the Start-Menu Tab
Click the Start Menu Radio Button
Click Customise Button (Spelt with a z )
¬the Customise Start Menu Box Appears
Click the Advanced Tab
There should be a check-box at the bottom labelled "List my most recently opened documents"
Make sure that box is ticked and OK that.

Should start listing them then.
