I understand that there is a flight sim embedded in MS Excell. I only caught part of the access instructions. Can someone fill me in...

Thanks in advance...

Hmmm ok that freaked my PC. Am I guessing it doesn't work in NT?
It runs some kind of app, but I just get a black screen and is sounds like the monitor is trying to switch res.

Looks cool, but what is the point of the game?

I think it's just to find the credits, for the people that made the program....

Does anyone know of any other Easter Eggs for MS Office 97?

I think the point is to show that while you may make the rules, you can't enforce them !! Also, it is an effective demo of how lines of code can be inserted (i.e. virus) into the world's best selling software without a whisper...What else may have been bundled in this sim by the author? Fortunately, it seems to be harmless-- but who is to say it will stay that way!
