I've seen several replies to your screen capture question. This is my recommendation. I assume you have a Windows computer.

1. click the windows button on the bottom left (four rectangles icon) of your taskbar or the matching windows button on the bottom left of your keyboard.
2. click the "all apps" icon to list all of the applications on your computer.
3.Scroll down and click to open "Windows Accessories"
4. Right click on "Snipping Tool" and select "pin to taskbar"

you can now click on the Snipping Tool icon on the task bar, select "New" and draw a marquee around whatever you want to capture. The image is now inside of the Snipping Tool and you can use the limited edit features to markup the image as you wish. Then you can copy the image and paste it wherever you wish or save it to a file and move it to an image repository or include it as an attachment to an email.

It is already on your computer and it's free.

Hope this helps.

This I can do now. Then it falls apart. But I'll follow your directions and learn. ThankQ.
