Am trying to print a DOS window using the Print Scrn Key
and it will not work. Previously used WIN98 and it worked
fine, but now with XP Pro it does not work. Any
suggestions?
 
Hi

Try using Alt-Prt Scr to capture the active 'window'.

In all Windows Prt Screen/Alt + Prt Screen copies a picture of the monitor/window to the clipboard. In 98 you edited the properties of the shortcut you used to start the program and cleared the checkbox Prt Screen on the Misc tab. Do the same in XP. This means windows will pass the keystroke to the program.
