printing selected text from web page

I have just recently upgraded to Wind ME, and a few days ago updated my browser to IE 6.0. I usually like to select (highlight) particular text in a news letter that I receive, and print only that selected. I just tried to do that and find I now print whole news letter (web page) instead of only what I selected. (now I have to copy and paste to word). Is there a solution to this? Its seems to be regressive to me. Copy and Paste is what I used to do before I knew how to select only text that I wanted to print. Its just a bother. Any solutions guys/gals?? Thanks in advance

When the selected text is highlighted, and you click File -> Print, is the Selection option under Print Range available to be checked? Is it greyed out?

Thanks Cory. I had forgotten about the print - File - options - print range. Yep I can print selected text that way now. If I go that route and chose the Select button. It is still not as easy as just selecting text and printing from tool bar!! I just don't know why I lost that ability just because I went to new (updated browser IE6.0) and Win ME??? I appreciate your help and quick response. This is first time I used this forum - its very interesting. Cheers
