Does anyone know how to do a screen capture in MS Word 3.02. I have tried
command-shift-3 and using camera, both methods failed. Any ideas??

thanx in advance

Buy Capture by Mainstay. Not even Word can stop it.

I suspect the problem may be more with Multifinder than with Word. No
problems at all with Camera/Word in Finder. Under Multifinder, I can
get a snapshot of the screen, but Word's menu is disabled and DA Handler's
menu shows instead.

I don't understand the problem I guess. I do screen prints in Word to prove
that graphics look OK in the editor, OK in page preview, and considerably
different when they print. 

The screens we show in the manuals use outline format on a black bar to
simulate the reverse video of the display. The Canvas drawing looks and
prints fine from Canvas, looks OK in Word's edit and page preview modes, but
the black bar sometimes moves to the right exposing our outline tricks.

In fact, it's fun to keep the desktop window open on one side of the monitor
while you do the screen print. You can see the screen 0 icon appear on the
desktop. I wonder if the type of monitor matters. (I'm using E Machines'
The Big Picture.)
