> What are you waiting for, SUE THE BASTARDS ! > :-) I know you're just joking, but I just thought I'd jump in here and say that I'd be sad if someone did. Why? Because then Microsoft would, in typical large company fashion, come down on the heads of the programmers who put the easter eggs (as they're called) in the Microsoft products, and this would be a sad day for all concerned. One of the few "human" things about the Microsoft products (and there aren't many) are these little hidden treats, and if Microsoft started nuking them then other folks like Lotus would follow suit and before long things would appear again as they did during the reign of the Blue Suited Ones. Dull and boring! One pogrom a century is enough, thank you! :-) Jordan
