I have many users running a dos based COBOL app in <br>
a "msdos session" under Win_NT40 wkstn. They are <br>
not in a "window" at that time, but use <br>
"full screen" text mode while running these COBOL<br>
applications. What I need to know is, how to <br>
allow them to get a printout of the screens from <br>
that full screen text mode. When we try that here,<br>
all that is in the clipboard is garbage.
 
You might try ALT + Print Screen then pop up Paint and do Edit -&gt; Past and print the image. I'm not sure if this works in full screen mode, but it should work in a window. It is not a good solution if your doing a great deal of printing but if you need screen shots to debug a problem it is useful.
