    Try using a screen capture utility to capture the map. You can press Alt+Printscrn and sace the window to the clipboard. Then paste into Word and crop it.

    Alt captures only the active window versus grabbing the entire screen contents.

    You can find many screen capture utilities in shareware libraries. Some freebies others shareware.
