- How do you bring up the Wordperfect Monster in MS WORD?
- (and the 123 icon in MS EXCEL 4.0?)
-
- Just curious - what other 'glory screens' are there in
- MS software.
-
- Lachlan.
-
- PS:- Does Phil get extra danger money from BIG BILLY
- for admitting he is an
- MS employee on the internet? (I'ts sounds analogous
- to a homosexual campaigning for gay rights
- in a Pub full of Drunk SkinHeads(?))
- Just curious again - (grin).
-
- Has there ever been an up-front Anti-MS post from an
- MS employee? (Analogous to a homosexual campaigning for
- compulsory lyching of gays in a pub full of Drunk
- Skinheads(?))
- Just Curious again - again.
