What number do you have in the Open File option "Number of recently-used file to list"?
See Tools > Options > Open and Save tab.

I currently have 9 as recent drawing total. I have tried changing this number to 5, 4, etc., but this one drawing refuses to be listed.

try File > Save As and re-write over the drawing.

I tried your suggestion, but it didn't work. Then just for laughs I tried File > Save as...and saved the file with "01" added to the file name. This one works; the drawing is shown in the recent drawing list!
I then saved this new "01" file again under the original name, but once again the file does not show up in the list. So I have a work-around, but not the solution. Oh well, better half a loaf....

What is the original name that won't show up?

I am at home now, so I don't remember the exact title. It's something like "Conveyor Anlage Grundzeichnung". (I'm living and working in Germany). There are no funny characters or weird foreign stuff.
