[WriteLog] Recenty used files list

[Dan Karg]

Don,
 I noticed that to the other day, didn't research it until now.

It looks like the edit and export options are getting the recent file list
from
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\W5XD\writelog.ini\Recent File List]
Which perhaps was the recent file list that was imported when we upgraded
from version 11.

Instead of
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\W5XD\writelog_v12\Recent File List]
where a current recent file list is being kept.


Guess that's a bug.
