    umm well, its a bit old hat. In most of the MS stuff(word/excel etc) there are a few secret things.

    most get you developers names and stuff.

    Any1 found any(or read up on) new ones in XP?
    Such is life.

    I couldnt find that option when you save it, does it work for office 2000?

    They are called easter eggs.

    Heres one. Change your screen saver to the 3D text one, change the text to Volcanoe and preview it. Instead of Volcanoe bouncing around, you will see programmer's names.

    You mean like "Word", "Excel" "Visual C++", "IE5", "Access" and all those other really obscure ones.

    Just because you dont use any of the programs listed doesnt mean nobody else does.

    However, lots of the eggs are pertaining to old versions of software. I tried the one out for Rational Rose, its pretty neat, makes different objects, instead of having the class name.
