MAGIC #1


Nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere


on the computer which can be named as "CON".


This is something pretty cool...and unbelievable...


At Microsoft the whole Team, couldn't answer why this happened!




TRY IT NOW, IT WILL NOT CREATE " CON " FOLDER


Why????? This is because.............

"CON" is a reserved keyword in DOS / Windows which stands for Console Device. Creating a file or a folder with reserved keywords is not allowed in all MS Operating Systems. For the same reason we can't create file or folder with name like CON, AUX, COM1, COM2, LPT1, NUL.


MAGIC #2




This is something pretty cool and neat...and unbelievable...


At Microsoft the whole Team, including Bill Gates, couldn't answer why this happened!


It was discovered by a Brazilian. Try it out yourself...


Open Microsoft Word and type


=rand (200, 99)


and then press ENTER


Its not just =rand(200,99), in ms word u type same command and replace 99 with any number below 100, u will get the result. 99 stands for Column, how many times the sentence must be repeated in each line. thats it.. 200 is a code, call for FONT demo sentence, specially used for testing printers.

Type =rand(200,0) u will get only 5 blank pages...
