Pasting random text into Microsoft Word
Ever need to put some text into a document quickly? Maybe you need to demonstrate a feature or want some filler. I used to type qwerty or asdf over and over again. Microsoft Word has a quick and easy way to do it. Just type =rand() on a blank line and press Enter. Word will replace that line with:
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
This feature works in Microsoft Outlook when using Word to compose e-mail messages. In addition you can do the same trick in Microsoft PowerPoint.
