If I want a picture of the screen in which I am working, I will hold down the Control (ctrl) key and press the Print screen button (prt sc) at the same time. Nothing appears to have happened but you can open a blank word document and press Paste. The screen shot will appear in the word document. You can then edit the picture (crop, rotate, etc.). In order to edit, you need to right click on the image. The secondary menu will appear. Now you have editing options. Hope this helps.
