| I'm shore i've seen it done ,is there a way to tell the computer to take a screen shot and save the file on the hard drive? | 
|

| The command SaveBuffer is what you need: http://www.blitzbasic.com/bpdocs/command.php?name=SaveBuffer&ref=goto You can also save an image by using the same command on the image buffer: savebuffer(imagebuffer(your_image),"test.bmp") Hope this helps, Sergio. |

| You can also use Snarty's "FreeImage Userlib" in order to save screenshots into other formats. If needed grab it here: http://www.blitzcoder.com/cgi-bin/showcase/showcase_showentry.pl?id=snarty09252003024804&comments=no Grisu |

| ...or just press alt+print screen to copy a screenshot into the Windows clipboard. | 
| 
 | ||
| Just pressing PrintScreen by itself, then opening paint or something and selecting Paste will do it. |
