Print Screen doesnt work

Hello,

I used to be able to copy a screen shot and paste it into Word/Outlook, etc
by hitting "prtscn" (or ALT-prtscn), then CTRL-V in the application I wanted
to paste it into. But for some reason the last few weeks this isn't working
anymore. I have even tried copying the screen shot for this question I am
typing right now, and it isn't working. When I go to paste it into Word,
nothing happens. Can anyone help me figure out how to fix this? I am on
Office XP, Word/Outlook/Excel 2003.

Thanks,
Tricia

it. Please ignore my post.

Thanks.
