Free screen-capture......

[Mindful]

Can someone recommend good screen-capture software? A simple to use one
would be best. No bells and whistles needed. I'm using W-XP/Home/SP2.

TIA

MWSnap is very nice. Don't know of the DL link off-hand but AFC has
links to it:

Under the category: Desktop, scroll down to the "Screen Capture"
section where you'll find a bunch to choose from.

Press the PrintScrn button on your keyboard, go into any graphics editor
such as Microsoft Paint, then press Ctrl+V to paste the screenshot

Alt-PrtScrn to capture just the active window, PrtScrn to capture the
whole desktop.

Thanks Al... never knew about using the alt key. I use the Print Screen
SysRq key a lot. Wouldn't be great if the keyboard knew exactly what you
wanted off of the screen so you didn't have to edit. That's all right...
I use VuePro to do simple viewing and editing.

Great site Mr Dee. Thanks for sharing. I'm all fixed up now.

It doesn't have to be a graphics editor. This also works with Wordpad and
MSWord. I find that Ctrl-V does not work in MSWord -- it's necessary to use
the Paste button.
