Sometime ago, I was given a formula/key combination that when entered into a specific cell, turned the screen to a space-like graphic where you navigated throught the stars and occasionally camde across the names of the developers in "outer space". A bit of fun, but I've forgotten how to get to this.
Can anyone help?
(At the time I think it was in Excel 98, possibly earlier, does it still work with XP?)

1. Open up a new document.
2. Press F5.
3. Type in x97:L97 in the reference box and press enter.
4. Press tab.
5. Hold down ctrl+shift.
6. While holding these two buttons click on the chart wizard button on the icon bar (the button looks like a bar graph).
7. This should take you into a flight sim sort of thing.
8. While in the sim, press the left mouse button to go forward, the right mouse button to go forward, drag left or right to turn, and drag up or down to raise of lower altitude.
9. Press [Ctrl] + [Shift] + [Esc] to return to Excel 97.
Note: There is a monolith the scrolls the name of the development team within the mini-game.
