Rephrase your question, it is a grammatical nightmare, I am not sure if you want to do something like BSAVE into a .bmp format or just make a screenshot using Print Screen
 
like Print screen just i only want a area of the screen and NeoAndresen

I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for but:
Hit Print Screen, Open MSPaint, Edit>Paste and select the part that you want

Print Screen will work in DOS.

It will not work in Windows 9x+ directly. However, you can still capture the screen.

Instead of using Full screen use the Window screen mode (Alt + Enter keys).

While the image is displayed in the window use CTRL + PrintScreen (sometimes you'll have to use the ALT + PrtScrn instead) keys.

This will save the image to clipboard. now you can paste it in MSPaint and manipulate it.

Let us know if this helps or not.
