Hi guys,

I have a windows xp remote keyboard
(http://www.avindigo.com/images/product/large/335.jpg) but it has no print
screen key. I really need some screen shots urgently asap, how do I do it?

Thank you in advance

Edwardo

Get IrfanView http://www.irfanview.com/
It's one of the best free graphic file viewers around, and it also does
screen captures, image resizing, and a whole lot more

Check with the manufacturer of your non-standard keyboard to see if
there's a way to program it to provide the "print screen" functionality.

You could possibly use the WinXP "on screen keyboard" (found under
"accessibility") but (a) that would probably mess up whatever screen
shot you're trying to capture and (b) I don't know how the OSK deals
with situations where you have to press a key combination -- although I
suspect it must allow you to do that somehow.

You might want to try a key-remapping program such as Sharpkeys
(www.randyrants.com) and use it to map another key you don't use to that
function.
