Member Since: February 2006 Posts: 3 Send Message	Hi, I am trying to save/copy a newspaper article to my desktop that I found on this site. It is a 'letter', if you want to call it that, from a Sgt. Sidney Rhodes sent to his wife in Hull, E. Riding of Yorkshire, from Stalag I PoW camp. I want to place this article in a document I am working on. Can someone please help and tell me what to do?

	I'm not very computerate myself, but have used the windows snipping tool to just snip the article itself, and have sent it to you by pm. I hope you can then just copy (contol and c keys) and paste (control and v keys) the snip into your document. I've also downloaded the whole newspaper page as a pdf file by clicking on the 'download page' button, but I was looking on the FMP site so it might be different on GR's site. I have sent the pdf file of the whole page to you via pm. I hope someone more IT literate than me can give you a more comprehensive guide as to how to do it in the future. I do find the windows snipping tool quite useful if you don't want the whole page, just the relevant article.
