To copy the entire screen as it appears on your monitor, press PRINT SCREEN. Note To paste the image into a document, click the Edit menu in the document window, and then click Paste. The print screen key copies a bitmap image of the screen contents to the clipboard. You should be able to paste the results into Paint, or a word processor that can handle graphics - such as MS Word. Unless that's specifically what you want you will probably find it unsatisfactory for your task since you're limited to what's on the screen. You can use the command line DIR command and redirect its output to a text file that you can print from Notepad. If you'd prefer something that's integrated with Explorer, have a look at a 3'rd party add-on such as ExpPrint http://www.jddesign.co.uk/. ExpPrint is an Explorer extension that gives you a "Print Directory Listing" context menu option when you select any combination of file folder, disk drive, or files - including the Search results list. It has quite a comprehensive sorting and layout capability, fully supports Unicode (so it can print names that contain characters not supported in the default code pages), and is only a small download. ExpPrint is shareware, the only restriction on the non-registered usage is that the Save settings capability is disabled. Other than that it's fully functional.

I can't seem to do a print screen
There is a little program called "print now" you can download it from the
web, it's easy and works great. You even can make it to start when you start up your computer so that it is there all the time. Best program using it for about 8 years and it even works on Windows 7 -- Rene "Lil Angel" wrote: Thank you so much for your reply...I will try this out.
