function
on his home pc but when using the 'ctrl, alt + print

trying
to paste to a Word (or any other) document is a funny
little icon (looks like acrobat icon) instead of
the 'window' he was trying to copy/print??!!

Anyone got any ideas?

Will be grateful for any help!!


I started a reply to this the other day and trashed it
because I thought
somebody might reply with a more appropiate response
related to Word.

AFAIK, pasting of screenshots (print-screen) requires
use of a graphics
software to convert to a graphics image, which then may
be inserted into
Word.
