Can I find out what docs I've opened (but not changed) in Vista.

Is there anything like \"History\" in a browser for My Computer or My Documents?

There is a recent documents thing in the start menu somewhere; I know XP has it, but I'm not sure about Vista.

Or just sort My Documents by 'Date Last Accessed' (it's a column you can turn on in Explorer).
