Cut and paste the screen into Word.  Then highlight the entire area, select the courier new font, then click on Formats and Borders and shading and put whatever border around the text that you like.

Does anyone have styles built or ideas how to grab AS/400 screens and reports and make them look good in MS Word? 

I know how to copy a spool file to Word; I am looking for styles or something that will make them look like greenbar background reports.  For screens, how to make them look like screens with a nice border.

I would the following requirements to be met:

1)      How can I make any font fixed pitch so AS/400 reports and screen columns line up vertically? 

2)      How can I make a greenbar background without a bitmapped image.

3)      How can I make a nice border to look like a screen (not bit mapped).

4)      Any other ideas for creating AS/400 software documentation.
