OK, here's an easy one. I don't know how to do a screen
capture. I know how to make a web page a favorite, but I
want to do a screen capture and be able to send that
capture as a file.

Thanks,

Doug
 
Press the 'Print Screen' key on the keyboard. That does a screen capture and
pastes it into the clipboard. Then click Run... on the startup menu and run
mspaint.exe. When mspaint comes up, click the Edit/Paste menu item. This
will paste the screen image into the paint program. Then click File/Save...
in mspaint and save the image as a file. Then include the file as an
attachment in your email.

To Copy the full screen Press the 'Print Screen' key on the keyboard.
To Copy just a window or a settings panel in an application, select the
window to make it active, then hold down the 'Alt' key and hit 'Print Screen'
on the keyboard.

Open Outlook, Paint or any application and paste it in !
