its boring but then again I'm monumentally bored this afternoon....

haven't had an email since 12:30 and then I got this one so its the most amusement I've had...

Open a Word document ni Microsoft word and type:

= rand (200,99)

Press Enter and wait 3 seconds...

good that took care of a few minutes...

In a pile of football shirts
I used to work for a company called Stocksigns, when that went through the spellchecket it came up with Stockings.

Bit of a pain when you signed your letters

Yours sincerely
STOCKSIGNS

and then forgot to stop spellcheker changing it!

thats no bug, its whats refered to as an 'easter egg'. a littel treat that some bored programer put in the code one day. Once upon a time, there where loads of them.

have ago at these in Excel97 and in Word 97 :smokin:

but once youve had a giggle, stop to think just how good thier internal code audits are... :ohmy:
