[General] word order

[wace]

I think the following sentences are both equally correct, but I would appreciate a native speaker's opinion anyway:

We look forward to receiving the required documents.
.. .. .. .. .. the documents required.

I suspect - as a fairly good speaker of English but not a native speaker -that only the second one should be used if the sentence continued with an infinitive:

... the documents required to apply for an export licence

Am I right in drawing this conclusion?

Thanks for your help!

Well... thank you very much for confirming my hypothesis, ...and of course for complimenting me on my English. Your kind words sure made my day! It's a confidence booster any English teacher like myself could use once in a while...;-)
