Hi,

Just press the buttons "CTRL" and "PrtSc" at the same time, open up the program Paint, (it’s listed under All Programs>Accessories) and then press in combination "CTRL" and "V", or chose paste of the Edit menu.

2 options:
to capture just the current application, hit Alt+PrtScr
to capture the entire desktop, hit just PrtScr
You then have an image in the clipboard, fire up your favourite editor ( Start -> Run then mspaint is never fails ) and Edit -. Paste ( or Ctrl+V ) the contents of the clipboard.

Oh that's hilarious smugiri!!! :P
What of the odds of two people answering the same question on a global web form, with an identical solution, nearly simultaneously, and happen to live about an hour apart. Bizarre eh! :lol:

Although the above methods work most of the time, there are certain web pages that seem to disable this feature. I use a program called HyperSnap-DX for those times. It will capture an active window, or the whole screen. The shareware version that I have puts some text across one corner of the capture, but if you pay the licensing fee, the text is no longer there.
