Please can anyone advise me I need to print out just paragraphs from websites. But can only print out the whole document.

I have Windows 7 but when I go on a website (I can use Google gold or explorer can't do it on either) I can only print out the whole document. Before I used to highlight the part I wanted click on print then go to Selection then it would print out just the bit I had highlighted. Can't seem to do this anymore. As I need to do this lots of times I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

I don't use Windows 7 so don't know if it's something just connected to that but have you tried copying & pasting to a Word document and editing from there?

Thanks Lady, can do that but it is such a long way round when I need so many bits from websites. This Windows 7 is abit of a disappointment there is so many features missing that my old PC had. Thanks will probably have to do C and P.

Not sure whether it would work but if the paragraph is highlighted instead of copying couldn't you try Ctrl+P-....haven't tried it - only a suggestion-JLe

No reason why it shouldn't work. Wife has W7 on her laptop. I'll try it on there later and see what happens.
