Thanks everyone for your responses. I had just recently
installed XP Pro at home and was trying to past the
screen shots into NotePad. I think that is the issue at
hand. I will just have to paste it into Paint and print
it from there, and do my other stuff from word pad until
I get Office XP. Once again, thanks everyone.

Paste your screen shots into the "wordpad" (.doc)
document along with your text. Wordpad is cheap(free)
version of Office Word.

If you have Microsoft Works in All-programs the "Works
Word" is also used for screen shot paste.

Notepad is just for text (.txt) no graphics.

You should be able to paste both text and graphics into word pad. you
don't have to use paint, unless you want to use it to edit the graphics.
