Sorry, if this is OT. Kindly refer me.

I looked up an address in Google (not Google Earth). Showed a real nice
close-up of my house. I tried to copy the satellite map image to My
Pictures. Did not work. If I send it by e-mail, it disappears. If I
right-click the map, there is no provision for saving the image.

Is there a special trick to it?

Thanks

A screen shot perhaps? You can do it the PITA MS way, or download this
freeware tool that takes over the Print Screen key. Quickly save the area
/you/ want with no hassle.

Thank you, Bruce (Why didn't I think of that?)
