How can I insert a MS Access command button in a Word document
Hello,
I am documenting an Access application and I would like to insert pictures of some command buttons of this application in this documentation (because I have to describe their use). I did not success with good old copy/paste (it copies all the form, not only the button) and I cannot find the related bitmap on the disk. How can I manage this? Thanks for your help. Voltrane |

How can I insert a MS Access command button in a Word document
You should be able to edit your complete form picture using PhotoEditor or
even Paint. However, there are also some good third-party image capture tools. I use SnagIt, from TechSmith http://www.techsmith.com , but I'm sure there are other equally good products available (including, possibly, freeware versions if you look hard enough) -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (No private e-mails, please) "Voltrane" wrote in message ...

How can I insert a MS Access command button in a Word document
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). http://www.attcanada.net/~kallal.msn/Articles/Grid.htm -- Albert D.

Voltrane PrintKey by Alfred Bolliger is an excellent tool. It is one of best, of the many great free utilities from PC Magazine. Now that PC Mag has gone commercial, there is a PrintKey Pro that is not free. You can still download the earlier (free) versions, however, from other sites. I've been using PrintKey 4 for years. I just did a quick google search and I see that there is a PrintKey 2000 available. Randy |
