OFF TOPIC:
A screen print is a print out of the screen. A screen print probably isn't sufficient, though, because it wouldn't be that difficult to create a version of the screen that shows any transaction you wish. For example, a friend of mine at UCLA once bought an extra physics book for an opne book final exam with the intention of returning it a few days later. The school's bookstore policy is to only accept returns if you are enrolled in the class the the upcoming quarter (otherwise, you could return all of your books), so he changed the html code to create a copy of his course registration which included the class for that book. So while a screen print may help, it is probably not that difficult to create a bogus screen print with the message you saw.

dovi please excuse the term screen that was a carryover from the old days. What I did was print the information from the monitor. Since I had the data printed out they accepted the print out. Their records didn't show anything unusual. John
