Greetings --

Pressing the <PrtScn> key copies the entire display to the
clipboard. Pressing <ALT>+<PrtScn> copies only the active Window to
the clipboard. To view the screen capture, open a graphics program,
such as MS Paint, and press <CTRL>+V. This will paste the contents of
the clipboard (your screenshot) into the open file, and allow you to
view it or save it as a file for later use.

use print screen keyboard button (next to f12) to copy
entire screen. press print screen and paste
into 'wordpad' document. to get just a window use
alt+printscreen
and paste into 'wordpad' document. notepad document can
not paste into.

if you want other areas you should get a program
called 'print screen deluxe' (www.nothingbutsoftware.com)
and you can snapshot lots of different areas.
 
Try striking "Control" and "Print Screen"...then pasting
("Control" and "V") into your destination
 
Does anyone know of one of these free programs where you can get the
screenshot and paste directly into OE please??
