Believe it or not - A Flight simulator from MS Excel 97 (courtesy: Integra
Microsystems, Bangalore, India)
Ever wondered why Microsoft applications seem to become slower and
fatter with each new release? Apparently the constant rain in Redmond
has driven Bill's engineers to obsessive flights of fancy.
Below you'll find instructions on how to access a little flight simulator that
was inexplicably hidden by precipitation-maddened programmers deep
inside Excel 97
(1) In Excel 97, open a new blank work sheet.
(2) Press F5 and type X97:L97 in the "Reference" box, click OK.
(3) Now hit your tab key once (you should end up in cell M97).
(4) press "Ctrl" and "Shift" while clicking once on the "chart
wizard" icon (the one at the top with the blue-yellow-red bar chart).
Welcome aboard ! After a few moments you should be flying.
Steer with the mouse, accel and decel with the left and right mouse
buttons respectively, and look for the monoliths with the programmer
credits.
You can exit the screen by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Esc. Enjoy the
flight...
Viel Spaß beim Hochhaus anvisieren :-)
