>>I am documenting the process of setting up some metadata for some of my coworkers. To facilitate the process I am putting screen shots of VFP browse windows in the document. I figured out awhile ago that it makes the screens much easier to copy if I define a window in the desktop to browse in so I don't have to clip the picture later.
