Default Excel screen capture to capture cells and row and column headings

If you are doing any sort of screen captures, then you need SnagIT by
TechSmith (www.snagit.com). It is brain dead easy to use and remarkably
flexible in what it can capture (screen, region, window, menu dropdown,
etc). It can save in any picture format you need (jpeg, gif, png, etc). And
for just US$40, it is a steal. It is one of the "must have" tools for any
developer.

ps.com...



I am writing a document and want to illustrate it using Excel screen
captures. I want to capture just the row and column headings along
with the Excel screen itself. I know I can do a PrintScreen or Alt
+PrintScreen and Ctrl+V it in Paint, but this usually includes the
stuff above the column headings. Within Paint, I then have to define
the area I want to cut, and paste it into my Word document. The
cutting and pasting from Paint is a manual thing and is not 100%
precise.


Is there anything I can do in Excel to get the results I want? Is
there any software out there that I can get that does this?


Many thanks for any information!- Hide quoted text -

Thanks all. I don't seem to have the Picture Editor. Next option: Yes,
I have used the cut and paste with the page setup to show the row and
column headings. Works. The result is very clear, but lack of shading
and uneven heaviness on the lines in the row and column headings are
negatives. Third option: Have found Snagit and seems to do the trick...
