Arrays Lot

How do I randomly place letters in a nonlinear array on a page?
I am working on my dissertation and I need to place a lot of characters randomly on a page where they are nonlinear in format. What I would REALLY like to be able to do is take the letters from my word document that are linear and have a program place them randomly on the page. The idea is to keep the eye from scanning the characters from left to right. Any ideas would be GREAT!!!
Since you are talking about word documents (I assume Word documents) you can do this easily in Visual Basic. Too much to go into here, but grab a computer savvy friend to do this. Read your starting words into a string array, then create and place random text boxes on a page.
This could be built in maybe 2 hours for someone familiar with VBA in Word.
