RE: Disabling print screen button from client access

We went down this path as we did not want user to trap data on the
screen. Then we realized it was a mute point. One can still use ALT
PRTSCRN to capture the active window and paste to an email as a BMP
image. They can write down the information too. Disabling only reduces
the convince it does not stop users from capturing sensitive
information. What you need to do is mask the fields you do not want
captured. Anything else is just a waste of resources.

Won't this still leave it in the File menu drop down list?

Just curious, Chamara: Why do you want/need to do this?
