Spy Hunter in Excel 2000
« on: November 14, 2004, 03:40:13 PM »
I found this little bit of fun at http://v2.tlab404.com/articles/detail.asp?iFaq=338&iType=18



A full-fledged game is hidden in the first release of Excel 2000. (It was removed in SR1 and SR2.) Follow these steps to access a racing game similar to Spy Hunter.

Open Excel 2000 with a blank worksheet.

Select File, Save as Web Page.

In the Save As dialog box, choose Selection: Sheet, check Add interactivity, and click Publish.

Click Publish in the 'Publish as Web Page' dialog box.

Close Excel, declining to save the worksheet.

Open Internet Explorer.

Choose File, Open, click Browse, and open the file you just saved.

Click in the spreadsheet, and hold Page Down to go to row 2000.

Click the gray header to select row 2000.

Use Tab to move the active cell pointer to cell WC2000.

Hold down Ctrl-Alt-Shift and click the Office logo in the upper left corner.

If you've come this far, congratulations! Use the arrow keys to navigate, the spacebar to fire, O to drop an oil slick, H to turn on your headlights, and Esc to quit playing.
No matter how hard you try to push the envelope, remember it's only stationary.

Zoë: Shepard, isn't the Bible kind of specific about killing?
Book: Very specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzy around the area of kneecaps.

'Cept when the die soaks through and stains the egg, then it just gets freaky trying to eat it.

Usually at that point I salt the crud out of it and pop the whole thing in my mouth.

Nummer Nummer!
