dm383,
Sorry to be a wet blanket, but this is a built in feature of Word.
The basic idea's pretty cool. Open any document, in any version of Word - even Word for the Mac! - and on a new line type
=rand(10)
then hit Enter. Word will create ten paragraphs, each paragraph consisting of five sentences of "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." The original Word developers - I'm talking about Word for Windows 1.0 here - built this into Word so it would be easy to create a quick document, so they could test it.
In general "=rand(x)" will produce "x" paragraph, each with five sentences of "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog."
There's a second form:
=rand(4,8)
which creates four paragraphs each with eight identical sentences: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog." Three weeks ago, I suggested you use =rand(10,10) to create ten paragraphs with ten sentences in each. That's more or less the size of a page. =rand(100) will give you 100 paragraphs each with five sentences, which occupies about 7 pages.
What about other languages? Each language version of Word has it's own phrase, not a translation of the fox and dog sentence. Like the English version, the foreign versions are normally a sentence that uses all the letters in the alphabet.
