    CTRL + Print Screen and paste [CTRL +V] it into whatever document you're using.
    I apologise if that's not what you were asking, I'm not much further up on the techie food chain.

    If you want to get the active window (if its not full screen) hold ALT and Print Screen.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    Good to know. Thanks. As it happens it is a full screen image I wanted to get in this instance. I presume those saved images are saved somewhere on my c drive too?

    Just to your clip board so its in temporary memory. You need to open paint and paste in the saved image and save it to your hard drive.
