I'm happy to give the point but ...<br />

Maybe I was halucinating in the 1990's but I remember a trick with a few keystrokes in Word .... you could see a 30 second show of dancing ants..

Hi,<br />
<br />
About 20 (?) years ago there was a trick with Microsoft Word/Excel whereby you could key in a certain keystroke sequence and .... a group of marching ants danced all around the screen ...<br />
<br />
Can anybody confirm this ? Perhaps a video?<br />
My son and I are trying to find this .... (maybe he thinks I have imagined it or have taken illegal substances!)<br />
<br />
Any help out there from the over 30's (over 40's?)?

A fun question for those with long memories!
