Generating random text in Word 2007

There are two easy ways to generate random text in Microsoft Word 2007.

You can use the rand command to insert text in your native language. Here's an example of what you'd type in Word:

=rand(5, 6)

When you type this command, Word 2007 will replace the command with random text. The first number in the command indicates the number of paragraphs of text to insert and the second number indicates the number of lines in each paragraph.

If you don't want people focusing on the contents of the random text since it is just filler after all, you can replace the rand command with the lorem command. When you do that, instead of creating random text in your native language it creates random text in Latin.
