Wal-Mart Bingo cards

It's been more than a year since I first came up with the idea, but I've finally come up with my Wal-Mart Bingo cards (Word .doc).

I'm not a programmer in a real programming language, but I've used Word VBA enough to come up with this working Word document. You'll need to have macro security set to medium and macros enabled for it to work. If you want to build this in a real program, my code follows.

Rules: print out as many cards as you want, then go to Wal Mart. The game starts when you lock your car. The first player with five in a row and back to the car wins. You can't use the same person for more than one box.
