    Here is something REAL cool in vb:

    1. From VB's View Menu, select toolbar, then customize......
    2. In the resulting dialog, click on the command tab.
    3. In the Categories List, select Help.
    4. Select "About Microsoft Visual Basic" in the Command List, and drag it to any menu or the toolbar.
    5. Right-click on the item you just dragged and rename it to "Show VB Credits" (without quotes).
    6. Then close the "Customize" dialog and click on the
    "Show VB Credits"

    For Any Comments, Just Reply.

    Talking How I Found This Easter Egg

    How I found the easter egg, you ask, its easy:
    A friend of mine works in Microsoft-Israel, and he has
    deep internal connections in Microsoft-Israel.
    (He's a project manager of something about the next VB7.0 !)
    so, he came to my house and said:
    "wanna see something no1 on earth knows?"
    I obviously accepted his wish

    Oh...He said: "Dont Tell Any1, This should be known to the public"
    As you see...I respect his wish. I dont tell it to any1, just to EVERY1.

    Use
    writing software in C++ is like driving rivets into steel beam with a toothpick.
    writing haskell makes your life easier:
    reverse (p (6*9)) where p x|x==0=""|True=chr (48+z): p y where (y,z)=divMod x 13
    To throw away OOP for low level languages is myopia, to keep OOP is hyperopia. To throw away OOP for a high level language is insight.

    I found that easter egg on a website ages ago...

    Anyway.. kedamanm, he means the whole thing. If you hide credits or something like this it's called an easter egg.

    Except me that is, as I already knew about that.

    It is on some of those Easter Egg pages on the net which I looked at ages ago.
