I am running XP but the program I open uses the DOS look-a-like screen and opens in full screen mode. How can I get a screen shot of this? I have tried different combinations of PrntScrn with no luck. Thanks.

I just tried that and it does not work. I also tried Screen Thief and that didnt work either. As stated, it is in "Full Screen" mode and it must work when in this mode.

Looks like you're going to be hunting downloads for awhile. The only program I have made to do this is old and runs under native dos.
Seems like I've seen several of these programs on ZDNets download site.

One way is to download screenthief (the free dos version 2.01, not the shareware ones)...run that in a windows dos prompt, and then run the program you want. Then press ctrl-alt-t. A bmp file of the screen will automatically be save on the directory.
