easter egg tutorial

yes it is an easter egg

[alexanderthegreat]

This is NOT an easter egg. It is just some text used when you want to fill up some space with random text(if you don't care about the content). It's quite commonly used too! In MS Office 2007, some meaningful text replaces this "magical-sentence-with-all-alphabets". By the way, rename this thread to something meaningful, at the very least.

guys, put these instead and u'll get to know what it actually is
=rand(1,1) and
=rand(1,2) and
=rand(2,1)

put them one by one and press enter.

I guess they've put it to test MS word while developing.

What the hell in blazes??? Microsoft aint stupid! Microsoft PUT it there! That, AND the lorem(x) syntax.

I'll tell you guys the intended use. It is just used to insert some random words just to see what your selected or customized formatting will look like practically. Instead of trying the formatting out by typing the random text yourself, you may simply save time and input that syntax to check it out! Sheesh! The things people come up with these days!
