Most Recent Documents shortcut?

I have a PC running Windows XP Home SP2, full updated.

I frequently visit the Most Recent Documents icon on the XP start menu.
It is a quick way to find stuff.

Is it possible to create a shortcut to that icon on the taskbar?

To be more specific, I'm looking for a MRD shortcut that will mimic
the original. In other words, when I place my cursor on it, a submenu would
open listing the last 15 or so files I used.
