Creating a Win95 Text Printer: 1. Goto Start/Settings/Printers 2. Open "Add Printer..." 3. Click "Next" 4. Select "Local printer" and click "Next" 5. Under "Manufactures" select "Generic" - the "Printers" list should only contain the "Generic / Text Ouput" choice. Click "Next" 6. Under "Available Ports" select "FILE:" and click "Next" 7. Edit the name (optional). If this is your only printer, make it the default otherwise don't. Click "Next" 8. Print a test page to test things out. You should be prompted for a filename after a couple of seconds. You can now "print" to this printer whenever you want to capture some text that you cannot Cut & Paste for some reason. Hope this helps, Chip Wireless in Seattle via Ricochet

start->settings->printer->add printer select my computer. scroll down and select port as FILE: hit next When the driver dialog appears. scroll to manufacturer generic and select. Select "generic / Text Only" as the printer. Hit OK and follow the prompts and your're ready. Just select that as your printer and it will prompt you for a file name. Use your favorite text editor to view and edit the results. Not always pretty but it works great when you can't save but print or can't cut and paste.... Sean
