Pasting screen shots impossible?

Good evening everybody.

I use Vista Home Premium on a brand new Dell.

I can

Copying from Word and pasting into a Rich Text email works.Taking
screenshots with "Ctrl" + "Print" and pasting it into Word or so works as
well. But pasting a screen shot into an Rich Text email doesn't work. Just
as in the "Text Only" format option the "Paste" option is not available in
the right-mouse-button-menu.

Any idea what this is?

Regards

Axel

Windows Mail does not have a "Rich Text" format. It has plain text
and HTML formats. Assuming you are talking about the latter,
WM does not permit pasting of images. If you upgrade WM
to WLM, you will be able to paste images into a HTML email.
