				Thanks batdad!!!
Seems that I do something wrong because I cant find the screenshot anywhere  
 
It usually goes to "My images", right??

				No sweat, like I said had the same problem. I Pm'd Archie though cause I was not around here long back then and did not want to look like a doofus. 
 So I solved that, and continue to this day to look like a doofus. 

 (Not that you look like a doofus...of course, I think everyone looks like their avatars.

				To add:
You can also do Alt+Print Screen to take a shot of just your currently active window.

				I have been trying Print Screen, nothing happens. I also tried alt+print screen,again nothing. I read elsewhere to try spacebar,after invoking shift ( ) 4. Inside the brackets was a weird symbol, looked like a sideways 8. Anyways I tried shift+4,then hit spacebar,nothing. Then I tried shift+F4,then spacebar,again nothing. The guy said after your cursor turns into a little camera symbol you hit spacebar to click a snapshot.
I managed to take screens a long time ago, but I forget how I did it. Just getting back into this game and would appreciate any detailed help whatsoever please!!
Thank you

				PRTSC only copies the image to the clipboard.  You need to paste it into a image program (PS, Paint, Corel).

				You may also need to hit the fn button if you have one and the PRT SC button has a little box around the letters.  Or try hitting control as well.  In my case I have to hit both.

				Does anyone know how to take screenshots in Windows 7? Print screen won't work and I don't remember there being a hotkey to automatically create a screenshot in EHM (like in FM). I downloaded FRAPS but my hotkey isn't creating any screenshots. Anyone got any ideas?

				I've got zero experience with Win7 but have you tried Alt-PrtScn or Ctrl-PrtScn?

It's fine now. I can confirm that PrntScrn alone will get a screenshot in EHM07 in Windows 7. I'm a bit surprised because all the other games/programs I've used won't let me get a screenshot of the actual program (instead it's the stuff that's 
under the program).

In Vista and Windows 7 you can use the 
Snipping Tool to easily create and save screenies of the game.

Never ever talk with a Mac guy
