To take a screen shot of the active window in XP is CTRL + PRINTSCREEN, ALT
+ PRINTSCREEN is for 2000 etc.

Hi,

I notice on Windows XP when I click Alt + PrintScrn to take a screen
shot, the position and type of cursor at the time disappears when I go
into Microsoft Paint and paste the resulting screen shot. Does anyone
know how I can take a screen shot and preserve where and what the
cursor is?

I don't have, nor am I proficient with PhotoShop and I would like to
include this screen shot in a word doc.

Thanks, - Dave

Thanks but even when I do Ctrl + PrintScrn, the screen shot still
doesn't include the mouse cursor. My problem is that I want it
included in the screen shot.

Thanks, - Dave
