when you type the above command in and press enter, on a
word document you get 255 pages of "The quick brown fox
jumps over the lazy dog."

Is this a programing glitsh or vb script running

Neither. It's an internal macro built into Word.

The first parameter is the number of paragraphs and the second parameter
is the number of such sentences in each paragraph.

Handy for Word training and template development.

Hi Malcolm,
I knew about that, but never tried to use it.
So I wonder, why it doesn't work here and now,
with my german versions of Word 97 and Word 2002.

I can't remember which version of Word it arrived at and also whether it
works with other implementations of Word.

In the German version, it's
"Franz jagt im komplett verwahrlosten Taxi quer durch Bayern."
(Franz chases all through Bavaria in the completely dilapidated taxi.)

"Tools > Autocorrect options > AutoCorrect > Replace as you type" needs to
be checked: It seems to be some weird kind of AutoCorrect (while "Edit >
Undo" says "AutoFormat").

Regards,
Klaus
