Office Logo is a Microsoft Agent and Microsoft Actor[1] character developed by Microsoft Corporation. Office logo came with Microsoft Office 97 and was also included in later versions of Microsoft Office. He was part of the Office Assistant feature of Microsoft Office, which allowed for an animated character of the user's choice to assist the user or answer questions. His appearance is an jigsaw puzzle.[2]
Use in Microsoft Office
Office logo was first introduced in Microsoft Office 97 and received an ACS version with the release of Microsoft Office 2000. Like other Office Assistants, he could be activated by typing an address followed by "Dear", which would cause the assistant to appear with the message, "It looks like you're writing a letter. Would you like help?"
