Hello,

I am documenting with Word an Access application and I would like to insert pictures of some command buttons of this application in this documentation (because i have to describe their use).
I did not success with good old copy/paste (it copies all the form, not only the button) and I cannot find the related bitmap on the disk.
How can I manage this.
Thanks for your help.

There was an identical question in the newuser's group yesterday. You are
not alone in documenting Access :)

You can grab button images from Access using tools > customize - select the
button and copy the image to the clipboard for pasting into Word, but you
will get altogether better results by using a screen capture utility such as
the excellent SnagIt, which I use to document Word in the many examples on
my web site. If you are going to do work of this type then this utility will
soon pay for itself. Spot the link on the favourites page of my web site -
and look at some of the Word tips to see what you can do with SnagIt.
