SYMPTOMS
========

In the multimedia titles listed above, you are unable to print selected areas of
text.

RESOLUTION
==========

Copy the text into the Clipboard and then paste it into a word processor or
Notepad:

1. Select the desired text with your mouse cursor.

2. Press CTRL+INSERT to copy the text.

3. Open Notepad or a Word Processor.

4. Press SHIFT+INSERT to paste the text.

MORE INFORMATION
================

When you select a topic, highlight some of the text, then try printing the
selection, the radio button is unavailable (dimmed) or there is no option for
printing a selection.

This is true whether you press and hold the CTRL key while you press the P key
(CTRL+P), choose Print Article from the File menu, or choose the Print button to
access the Print dialog box.

In Bookshelf 96-97, when you print selected text, only one line of the text may
print. Use the above resolution to work around this problem.

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem with the applications listed above.
This problem was corrected in Encarta Encyclopedia for Windows, 1996 edition and
Bookshelf '95 for Windows 95.
