Alt-PrintScreen will copy the active dialog to the clipboard.
If you wish you can paste this directly into a Word document, although
generally if you are creating a manual of any size/longevity you would want
to be a bit more systematic about formats, file management and so on.
If you want something a lot more sophisticated than Margaret's suggestion,
then look at the excellent SnagIt (which produced all the screen shots on my
web site)

Start SnagIt.
Set the option to capture the current window.
Minimise to the system tray
Press CTRL+ALT+DEL
Display which screen you want to capture.
Press the shortcut keystroke combination to activate the capture.
Save the resulting capture as GIF.

Having just re-read your post, I think we are talking about different
screens. You cannot run an application like SnagIt that requires the user to
be in Windows when you are not in Windows.
