Hi

Can anyone tell me how to copy a green screen display with all the
associated colors and attributes from Client Access to a Word doc?
I have seen it done before but can't recall how they did it.

Thanks in advance,
Rob

Make your ca session the active window, press alt+print keybuttons, go to an
opened word document, place the cursor at the position where more or less you
want the screenshot appear, press ctrl+v keybuttons.
That's it.

I guess you mean as characters, not as an image? An image would be
Windwos standard: Alt+Print in the AS/400 windows, Paste in Word. But
this makes Word docs huge and you cant use the screens as text.

To get the AS/400 screen as text in an Office document I paste the
Alt+Print image into the text recognition software that came for free
with a cheap HP ink FaxScannerCopier. As many as I want, one below the
other. Then I run the software with the option to create a .doc.
There it is, with all the underlines (even empty ones of input fields)
and colours. The whole procedure takes only some seconds per screen.
I use font courier, put boxes around the screens, add comments and the
documentation is ready.

Should work in MS Word also, don't know since we have already changed
to OpenOffice.

Just easy... open the Office Doc.... Openthe As400 Ca Session in full screen
press while in As Session right upshift, hold it down an press print key in
upper row of keyboard..
then open your wor doc... and press strg (in german.. its the leftmost
lower key.. i think ctrl in english..)
hold it down and press v..

and you will have your screen in color in your word doc..

this works also with every windows screen like explorer or so..

just build in no software needed

greetings from germany

Snagit works great. Very inexpensive (approx $40-$60) for all of it's uses.
