A little bit of ze funnies

So, I came up with this wonderfully useless thing today, and I thought it might get a few laughs...

behold, the MS Excel Techno Generator!

to construct follow these simple steps.

  1. In cell A1, type oonce (make sure there's a space after it).
  2. In cell A3, type # of measures, and enter any number of your choice in cell B3.
  3. In cell A4, type emphasis 1, and enter an integer 1-4 in cell B4.
  4. In cell A5, type emphasis 2 and enter an integer (smaller than that in B4) in cell B5.
  5. In cell B1, enter the formula =REPT(A1,4)&"| "
  6. In cell C1, enter the formula =SUBSTITUTE(B1,"oonce","OONCE",B4)
  7. In cell D1, enter the formula =SUBSTITUTE(C1,"oonce","OONCE",B5)
  8. Type basic song in cell C7 and advanced song in cell D7.
  9. In cell C8, enter the formula =REPT(C1,B3).
  10. In cell D8, enter the formula =REPT(D1,B3).
  11. Format some things so you can see them better. I suggest "wrapping text" in cells C8 and D8, and making cells A3:B5 have a colored background.
  12. Now you can play with the three numbers in cells B3:B5 to make an endless selection of techno music!
I hope you enjoy your MS Excel Techno Generator. Why do I get the feeling that the makers of eJay Clubworld started here?
