My crafting friend uses XP and would find this useful too so I wondered if anyone knows of a free download which would do the same thing? Have done a quick google and found one or two things. There is a FF addon called Snipshot but it isn't compatible with FF3 and I would like the utility to be independent of a browser.
Wondered if anyone has tried anything similar?

Use the Prt Sc button to get the full screeninto the clipboard.
Then Get and open Irfan View http://www.irfanview.net/
Copy to the blank screen. Drag cursor around what you want. Shift C to open the clipped bit as a new image. Save it
Hope that helps

The original question was due to the fact that I use a disc which has images and backing papers on it displayed in pdf format (I use Foxit).
It was just that I wanted to use/transfer the images to Publisher to manipulate them and so make them more useful.
Will now have to explain to my friend how to do this.
** Just located another little download called Screenhunter 4 (www.download.com) which looks as if it does the same as the snipping tool so I will have a go with that tomorrow. It should be easier than the former method (my friend lacks confidence with her computer and might find is a bit difficult).

It says that the requirements are:
* Windows XP (x32), Windows Vista (x32)
* Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0
Excuse my ignorance Oldjim but does this mean it would work with your Vista 64bit?
**Confession time - I got the link from a reader of the Computeractive forum!
