What a tremendous resource! It's great. One question. I can see lots of
books I will be downloading. However, there are many I would just like to
take a clip to paste into FTM, along with the source information. It
seems Google does not want this to happen. How do I use the 'print
screen' to clip a piece? I thought one just went to the notepad and
pasted, but it's not working. Any help appreciated.
