Copy Excel Selection as a Picture

Want to show someone a chunk of an Excel spreadsheet via email or iChat? You could take a screenshot, but if you want to show just a portion of the Excel window and you don't use a utility like Snapz Pro, you can do this right from within Excel 2008. Make a selection, hold down the Shift key, and choose Copy Picture from the Edit menu. You can select whether the selection will be rendered as though it was shown on screen or as though it was printed. Then just switch to your desired destination and paste.

Quiz Preview: Less is Moire -- As an evaluation of your knowledge of computer terms before you run out to buy a copy of Newton's Telecom Dictionary, reviewed by Kirk McElhearn below, this week's quiz is a "which one of these terms isn't like the others" test made famous by the children's television program Sesame Street. We've come up with four terms, three of which are related, and it's up to you to identify which of them doesn't match. [ACE]
