WINDOWS (3.0-3.11)

HOW to CAPTURE a TSR Program SCREEN using Alt + Print Screen keys together to

PRINT OUT A MUCH BETTER LOOKING PAGE.

1> Before starting TSR software from Windows, I suggest that you start your favorite Windows Art program, (or simply the PAINT program that comes with all Windows software).

2> Use Ctrl + Esc keys together to get to the TASK LIST.

3> Move to Program Manager line, Press <Enter>.

4> Start any of my programs from Windows however you want.

5> After deciding what screen you want to capture, press Alt + Enter keys together. This will bring my Dos program into a smaller Windows window.

Note: ...If a text screen has an odd double space look to it, click on upper left hand corner of window and then click on Fonts. Try changing to 8 * 12 font, usually this fixes the problem.

6> Now press Alt + Print Screen keys together to capture this screen to clipboard.

7> Use Alt + Tab keys together to go right back to your Art program, (or PAINT).

8> Use Edit then Paste to drop the captured screen onto page.

9> Now you can stretch it, shrink it, fax it, mail it, add text to it or whatever. It's simpler to do than it is to write about.

NOTE:....Most problems that end users have with ALL BRANDS of SOFTWARE is not because the software does something it's not supposed to, or that they don't want it to. It's because they are in too much of a hurry and don't want to read the authors notes, license, readme.txt or installation prompts. It's the "I can put this together without instructions" mentality, then they blame everyone or everything except themselves for the errors or problems that occur later.
