MAGIC #1

An Indian found that nobody can create a FOLDER anywhere on
the Computer which can be named as "CON". This is
something funny and inexplicable? At Microsoft the whole
Team, couldn't answer why this happened!
TRY IT NOW, IT WILL NOT CREATE A "CON" FOLDER



MAGIC #2

Again this is something funny and can't be explained?
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
And see the
magic?..!


Magic #3

Did you know that a flight number from one of the planes that hit one of the two WTC towers on 9/11 was Q33N. In Notepad / WordPad or MS Word, type that flight number i.e. Q33N. Increase the font size to 72. Change the font to Wingdings. ….. u will be amazed by the findings!!!!!!!!!!!

MAGIC #1

According to this rather breathless little message, which circulates via email and online, it is not possible to create a folder named "CON" on a Microsoft Windows based computer. The message claims that not even Bill Gates or the whole Microsoft "Team" can explain why this might be so.

It is in fact perfectly true that you cannot create a folder named "CON", nor can you rename an existing folder to "CON". However, there is no mystery surrounding this restriction whatsoever. The "team" at Microsoft, and a great many others besides, know perfectly well why you cannot name a folder "CON". "CON" and a number of other character strings are in fact reserved names that go back to the days of DOS and cannot be used to name folders or files. Other reserved names are:

• PRN
• AUX
• NUL
• LPT1
• COM1
• Potential drive letter - A: to Z:
• A number of others

If you try to name a folder using one of these reserved names, the name will automatically revert to the default, generally "New Folder". Moreover, if you try to use a reserved name to name a file such as a Notepad or Microsoft Word document you will generally receive an error message similar to the following:

Depending on exactly how you save the file, you may instead receive a warning message advising that a file with that name already exists. However, even if you choose "Yes" to overwrite the existing file, you will still not be allowed to save the file.

It should be noted that, by entering the right sequence of commands via the command prompt, it is usually possible to circumvent the restriction in Winodows and create a folder using a reserved name. However, this may cause other problems and is not advisable, especially for more inexperienced users.

While there is no mystery about this issue, it might have saved user confusion if Windows displayed an explanatory error message when attempting to create a folder with a reserved name as well.

These special names for the devices really mean something special for the operating system and those names can not be used as folder or file names. (CON, PRN, NUL, COM1 to COM9, LPT1 to LPT9)

CON -CONsole
PRN -PRiNter
NUL - NULL
COM1 to COM9 - COMmunication ports
LPT1 to LPT9 - Line PrinTer ports

Open Microsoft Word and type

=rand (200, 99)


And then press ENTER

if you are using Office 2003 you will get this ..
The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.
repeated in 200 paragraphs, with each paragraph saying it 99 times.

"The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" contains all letters of the alphabet and is therefor a good way to test a font.

Since the sentence covers each and every character of the English alphabet, its presumably a built in macro to test out fonts for generating sample texts.

But surprisingly, if you use MS Office 2007, you wont get that result. Instead you will get a nice paragraph that starts with ..
On the insert tab, the galleries include items that are designed to coordinate with the overall look of your document.
which is a kind of manual of exciting new features of Word 2007! An uninterrupted effort by Microsoft to popularize their product I guess

Q33N story is a bullshit.. there was no such flight number..

"Q33N" only a code because when used with the font webdings it shows a plane, two towers, and a skull and cross bones...
