If I remember correctly it is a fairly accessible tool when using JAWS or NVDA.

Hi Jim,

Had to do lots of screen captures last year and used an uncomplicated tool. It's on my other machine but I'll check it out and send you a link tomorrow. The method of print screen + paste into paint or some other image editor is not productive, as you still then have to go save and convert to JPEG or TIFF with small size -- at least on XP, would have thought Win 7 could have added a tool for this?

Pressing Alt + PrintScreen will place an image of the active window in the Clipboard. I normally do this and then perform OCR on the image. I have not attempted to paste into Excel, but it should work.

Hi,

I've been asked to do this. Does anyone know of a fool-proof way? Here's the scenario.

1. Go to a web page.

2. Find a defect.

3. Take screen shot of the area.

4. Paste into Excel.

As an example, I was able to spot a group of out of context links by sorting the JAWS Links List dialog in alphabetical order. Five links said the same thing.

Thanks.

Jim
