Perfect question! I've been to chicken to even ask thinking I was the only one who couldn't do this. Should have known to ask dozn01, he has the answer. Thanks for asking it! Just tried this myself and doesn't seem to work. Maybe I need an upgrade or new system! Darn, I was all happy and stuff. lol

Thanks dozn01; So, I still can't take a snapshoSys Rqt of my table. Matter of fact can't get my (Prt Scrn Sys Rq) to function at all. Is there any other suggestions or is it something to do with software? Any input appreciated!

Guess I'm not upgraded to the right windows version or just a dummy! Tried both techniques and still no luck. Going to get my basic book out "Wndows for Dummies" and do some reading. But, thanks to budgie111 for starting a thread that's driving me knuts. And, all the BRM members for input. I've probably been trying harder the budgie!

I use the snipping tool in accessoires folder of Windows 7 version, but I think this method is much quicker than the printscreen option. Test the snipping tool kit !

That's exactly where I'm coming from I use various programs everyday at work and can't get a silly screenshot. Feel like an idiot! Wondering if it's my keyboard. Running windows XP. If I hit ctrl-Prt Scrn - doesn't work, Alt-Prt Scrn- doesn't work and prt Scrn by itself don't work and I supposedly know something about computers / software. I'm going to the "Dunmmiese Book" LOL
