I got this trick for Excel 95 in an E-mail. I am not sure if it works becuase I don't have Excel 95. For those of you who do have it, here is the trick...
For excel 95 (not excel 97) try this out:
1 - Open a new
file
2 - Scroll down to row 95
3 - Click on the row 95 button to highlight
the entire row
4 - Press tab to move to the second column
5 - Now, move
your mouse and click on help at the top
6 - Then click on "about Microsoft
excel"
7 - Press ctrl-alt-shift and click on the tech support button at the
same time.
A window will appear with the title: THE HALL OF TORTURED SOULS. This is really eerie. It has a doom style format and you can walk all around the hall using the arrow keys. On the sides of the walls are the names of the tortured souls....now walk up the stairs and then come back down, facing the blank wall. Now type in EXCELKFA --this will open the blank wall to reveal another secret passage, walk through the passage and do not fall off. This is difficult to do. When you get to the end you will see something really, really weird.
