hi,

I have a query regarding ms word. But I need to upload a screenshot to support my question. How can I do that or is there anyway so that I can post my screenshot.

SAI:

Piece of cake!

Make sure the window/item is active.
Press Alt + Print Screen/SysRq (just above the Insert key).
Open MS Paint.
Click on Edit > Paste.
Click on File > Save As...
Name it and save it to your PC.
Close MS Paint.
Upload the graphic you just saved.

I might be wrong, but I think saivstech needs to know how to upload the screenshot onto the web...

psi42:

Thanks for looking at this from another angle; always helps to have more input.

I thought he'd need to do that in order to display it on the web - turn it into a graphic and upload it just as he would an animation, avatar, signature, etc.

However, he can also select, copy and paste the screenshots he captured into a word document, with whatever text is needed, capture that, then upload it.

I wasn't quite sure what he was going for. Not sure if he wanted to use each screenshot, separately, or create an html document, "on the ground', and go from there.

I suppose it all depends what end result he's going for.

Thanks for the "but, what if he wants this?"

;D

Seems we are just guessing here

. Hopefully savistech will come back and enlighten us.
From what I see, I believe he might need help actually uploading an image he has already got--where to put it and what to link to, etc
I've never had to do that, so all I can do is guess. Maybe just getting free webspace at geocities, uploading the image, and linking to it there? I don't know if that would work...

hope this helps...

hi all,

Thanx for ur prompt responses. I appreciate it

.

I forgot to mention that i'm trying to upload the screenshot which is save in word, to the askmehelpdesk only, so that I can ask a question based on that screenshot. Since i'm unable to express the question in simple words, I want to put the screenshot.

Thanx once again.
