maybe the folders are hidden. Go in My Docs, Folder Options, view and select the 'display hidden folders' option. Worth a try.

Gotta ask, why are you so sure the files are still there if you can't see them?

Hi Chuckfickens - I know they're there because I can access those that were opened in 'Recent Documents' Great response though! Glad there's someone out there - I'm feeling alone...............

Maybe you've accidentally moved them. If you can see them in Recent Documents, right-click on one of them and choose Properties. Go to the General tab, and check the location.
