As they say, "A picture is worth a thousand words." Did you know that Windows Vista has a built-in Snipping Tool for capturing parts of your screen? This conveniently allows you to illustrate a particular screen shot without having to search for the words that describe what you see.

It can be found under:
Start --> All Programs --> Accessories --> Snipping tool

Just add it to your taskbar so you can simply launch it from any screen. Once activated, it freezes your current view and allows you to select a specific part of the screen. Once selected, you even have basic editing options, such as marking and highlighting. You can then easily copy it to your clipboard for pasting in Word, Powerpoint or any other application, or email it directly.

Remember, with just a few clicks, you can add this and other handy Knowledgebase posts to your SysAid. We're here to help each other, so feel free to visit the SysAid Knowledgebase to spread your handy hints and gather more tricks of the trade.
