look at this link that provides an example:
http://www.linda-goodman.com/ubb/Forum24/HTML/203447.html

All you have to do is

1) Open the document (does'nt matter what document type it is; for example, you can even copy a PDF)

2) Press the Print Screen (Prnt Scrn) button on your computer keyboard. In some cases you may have to use Shift + Prnt Scrn. It now copies the computer screen as it is.

3) Open Word and paste the picture that you just copied.

4) Double click the picture that you just pasted. Hopefully your Edit Picture options should show up.

5) Look for 'Crop' option. Click on that button and now adjust your picture by cutting unnecessary parts of the picture.

6) Once you are happy with the content, click somewhere outside the picture and now draw the picture from one of its four corners to make it look big. Your pic is now almost ready.

7) Now select the finally adjusted picture and copy it

8) Now open MS paint and paste the copied picture and align the background white space with the picture edges.

9) Save it as <image name>.jpeg. (Insert your name between the brackets).

10) Publish your image to the web and provide that image link in your messages.

Hope I did not confuse you

Cheers

Welcome LindaGreg!!

____________

Diana - are you on a PC or a MAC?

On a PC - PRT Screen should really work. You just click Print Screen.. Then - when you open Paint or Word (I prefer Paint).. you click "ctrl + v" or go to Edit - Paste.

I was able to finally do it!! It was the control V part that I needed!


But it keeps cutting off the top of the grid, even when I make the grid smaller in scale before I copy it...

I am hopeless!

Diana - YaY!!! lol

"ctrl + v" is just a short cut for "paste".
You should still be able to go to "Edit" - "Paste".. and it should work.

Usually it should copy the screen as it looks to you.. so if the table doesn't entirely fit on screen.. if won't be wholly copied.

LOL! I almost took it for granted and didn't bother to expand on it. Silly me!
