Hi Christine (K)
http://www.freewarehome.com/ > Graphics > Screen Capture gives you
lots of options.
My personal favourite, if you can still find it there is the freeware
ScreenRIP 32 Beta (also available from www.progency.com)
Fantastic little tool, all bundled up with its help file in a simple
ZIP archive, no install script running needed, just extract and run.
In my experience, stable on all recent flavours of Windows except for
the later service packs of NT4.
Your issue of output resolution, as I see it, could be solved by
linking to separate files of the screen capture bitmaps rather than
including them in the document (when you resize an embedded /
included graphic object in Word, the resolution changes according to
how it is stretched or shrunken to fit).
Best to create an empty, bordered or borderless table cell of the
size you want for the graphic first, then include picture from file
into that cell. The graphic will fill that cell at a size to fit to
the text margins with no apparent adverse impacts on its picture quality.

Hope that helps.
