Showing a picture of problems in excel sheets- how

Gareth Hall · Feb 20th, 2002, 07:32 PM

In the problem I just posted I tried to take a picture or snapshot of the cells that were in question, I couldn't figure out how to do it, I could alt/printscrn and paste that into Word but that only did the whole page in view and I couldn't edit the image. Is it possible to do because "a picture says a 1000 words" and people have trouble decribing what is going wrong where a simple picture would explain more.

I have just found Capture Professional 4. I will fix my message now with my problems.

Select area of cells.
Hold down shift, select Edit, copy picture, as shown on screen.
Select cell on worksheet, hold down shift, select Edit, paste picture.
Hope this helps
