print screen button - Urgent

[New User - Microsoft 2007]

For a school assignment I need to copy to my clipboard an active screen
(Creat new building block), but the Print Screen button will only copy
something out of my word document.

Have you tried using Alt+PrintScreen? If that doesn't work, you'll need a
dedicated screen capture utility such as SnagIt (www.techsmith.com); there's
a free trial download.

On my system I also have to turn off the F-Lock key to get PrintScreen to
work properly...

Ah, yes, if it's a laptop, that's a good bet to be the problem.

F-lock did not work, so I had to use the on screen key board. I know this is
a very elementry question, but how do you know that the F-lock is on or off?

Thanks!

Is there an indicator light?
