Ah, 4.01, that's before I joined the band of SnagIt users!
FWIW, I tend to capture in SnagIt and immediately transfer the shot to
PaintShop Pro almost instinctively. Both PSP and PhotoShop can do what
you want in seconds. BTW, I can't find a way in SnagIt 6 to overlay
onto a screen shot - but then I've always had a raster editor to hand.
