Default How to post text from Windows message without typing it

My apologies to everyone that replied to my problem.

I just realized that when a windows message pops up, you can simply do a
ctrl-c and use something like Notepad to ctrl-v. It pastes the error in
text format.

Sorry folks. I never knew you could do that.

All this time, whenever i wanted to save a message window, i would alt-print
screen, open paint and ctrl-v, then save the paint file.

Thanks,
Tony

Hello.

Does anybody know how to get the text from a windows message into a forum
message without typing it verbatim from the message itself ?

I ask a lot of questions on these forums and it has been very helpful and
i would like to continue to do so. But when you have to post an error
message you get from windows, the only way i know to do it is to type the
message.

I tried pasting the message to the forum in HTML format, but some people
don't use HTML and therefore do not see what i am posting.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Tony
