Thanks, All. I really knew, deep down, that I'd have to do the screen shots. I just finished working on two presentations for next week, and the thought of one filled with lots of screen shots seemed more daunting than just doing the thing live. But I do appreciate what Jill said about using the presentation again. If I do it again, and I likely will, I'll be ahead of the game. Our library is technologically fabulous, but even they have no control on the Internet at times. Someone else also suggested using video screen capture, and I likely will at least try that on parts. So I will just buckle down and get to work.
