All Office 2010 applications now include a screen capture utility to help you quickly capture any area of the desktop screen.

The tool will automatically take screenshots of all open applications on your desktop (that are not minimized), and let you insert them directly into your document.

Inserting a Full Screen Screenshot

To insert a full screen screenshot:

1. Click Screenshot in the Illustrations group on the Insert tab of the Ribbon.
2. Word will display thumbnails of all open applications that are not minimized.



3. Click the thumbnail you want to insert the screenshot in your document at the insertion point.

Inserting Part of a Window

To insert part of a window:

1. Click Screenshot in the Illustrations group on the Insert tab of the Ribbon.
2. Select Screen Clipping.
3. Word will apply a transparency to the window and change your cursor to a crosshair.
4. Use the crosshair to drag the section of the window you want to save as a screenshot.
5. After selecting a section of the window, Word will convert your selection to a graphic and insert it in the document at the insertion point.
