If you hit the print-screen button on your computer, a snapshot of the
screen is taken.

You can then paste that picture into word (just go edit-paste).

All my screen shots are done that way. You can also go alt-print-screen, and
only the current active window is sent to the paste buffer.

Since word has since some nice cropping options..often the above is more
then enough. I did the following screen shots using print-screen, and they
came out very well (I throw them into paint shop pro).
