Resolved Is their a way to copy print

I was wondering if their was a way to copy something and print it when their is no menu. It won't highlight. Two good example are, 1 when you get an error message and I want to copy it, so I do not have to write it down 2 Open a explorer window and want a hard copy of the info but their is no menu bar.
I tryed print screen, but it makes it so small one can't read it after it been inserted in a word Doc

 

Try this guide, the trick is to use Microsoft Paint, the article describes how to do this copying a web page but the same instructions apply whatever you use Print Screen for.

I use a program called MWSnap. It allows me to take a picture of anything on the desktop.

 

You can press 'Print Screen' next to F12 on your keyboard and then paste it onto any Word document. Once there, you can right click on the picture and use 'Format Picture' to eliminate anything you don't want.

Is mwSnap work on Vista and win 7
I saw on a page reading about it and the highest version was XP. It sounds about like waht I ned to solve this thread

 

I never thought of different operating systems, so I don't know.

I'm sure there are other similar programs that work as well as MWSnap

Thanks that snipping tool I did not know I had it or what it's use was. It was just what I needed. I'll have fun with that tool
Thanks PeteC

 

If you use the ALT key with the PRINT SCREEN key then paste it into a word document you will get only the error message window which you will be able to resize as needed.

Cheers

 

i'll try that to, The snipping tool in win7 is very much what I like
