Fun With MS-Word 

This isn't exactly an easter egg, because it's actually documented in Microsoft's knowledge base, but it's one of those features that you just weren't expecting so it still qualifies.

This should work in any version of Microsoft Word… Just open up a new document, and then type in =rand() into the document:

image

And then hit enter…  voila! Three paragraphs of text will be instantly added…

You can add more than 3 paragraphs or more than 5 sentences per paragraph by using the following syntax

   =rand(paragraphs,sentences)

For instance, for 6 paragraphs of 2image0 sentences each, you would use:

   =rand(6,20)

Update

You can also use =lorem() instead of rand(), with the same syntax if you wanted to insert the Lorem Ipsum text instead of completely random text.

Note: I have tried yhis wid Office 2007 and Office 2003, and it works perfectly.

Re: Fun With MS-Word 

Check these my friend scrapped me-

MAGIC #1

Nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on the computer which can be named
as "CON".
This is something pretty cool...and unbelievable. ..
At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this happened!
TRY IT NOW, IT WILL NOT CREATE "CON" FOLDER

MAGIC #2

This is something pretty cool and neat...and unbelievable. ..
At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why
this happened!
Try it out yourself...
Open Microsoft Word and type
=rand (200, 99)
and then press ENTER


MAGIC #3

For those of you using Windows, do the following:
1. Open an empty notepad file
2. Type "Bush hid the facts" (without the quotes)
3. Save it as whatever you want.
4. Close it, and re-open it.
is it just a really weird bug?

You can try the same thing above with another sentence "this app can
break"
