    Hey guys, check this out, not even Bill Gates can explain this one.

    Open Up Microsoft Word
    1. Type in =rand(200,99)
    2. Then hit Enter
    3. Wait for 2 seconds

    It makes you wonder what else is programmed into your Microsoft Products that you don't know about!

    I use a norwegian version of Word and got this response:

    Den raske brune reven hopper over den late hunden.

    What did you get?

          we get 13 pages of

          "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. "
          over and over and over.
          If you're trying to objectify the subjective, you need to stop breathing.

            It looks like a programer was bored at work...or just has a good sense of humor

              hehe, ok, that's exact what the norwegian phrase means in english. My GF advised me to visit eeggs.com to find more of this stuff.

                That sentence was used to test typewriters because it has every letter in the alphabet in in.

                        i think it's a joke by the MS people.

                        there are a few other things like that, but I don't know them anymore

                              i hate to burst any bubbles but "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" has a meaning. if you can remember back to 3rd grade, its a sentence that uses all the letters in the english alphabet.

                              its used for all the font files in word and just a glitch in ms. not a practical joke...

                              yeah yeah, im no fun

                                Here's one: Type "zzzz" (no quotes). Then do a spellcheck, those programmers must be lonely...

                                    Try this...

                                    Open up excel.

                                    Go to File>Save as webpage

                                    Click publish

                                    Check the "Add interactivity with" box

                                    Click publish

                                    Go to where it saved, and open in internet explorer (wont work in netscape etc)

                                    Scroll down to line 2000, and highlight the WHOLE row.

                                    Tab across to box "WC" (so you hve the whole of row 2000 highlighted, and WC selected.

                                    Press Ctrl + Shift + Alt

                                    Click the Office logo in the upper-left corner with your mouse pointer.

                                    Will not work if you have office 2000 SP1 installed, but its great fun if it works!
