    Simply press the print screen button on your keyboard and then open Word and right click and paste.

    Is this what you were looking for?

    or any/mose graphic software (paint shop pro - photoshop) etc...

    Try Alt-Print Screen to take a shot of the active window

    Instead of saving it in word open up Microsoft paint and paste it there and then save it.

    No problem, I never knew that's how it was done until my boyfriend showed me how to and I couldn't believe how easy it was.
