I usually use Alt-PrtScn
and paste it in Word or the equivalent.
That catches "active window", which is usually the dialog box.
Reason being: I get the dialog box caption/title also, which is often
ambiguous or otherwise needing of improvement.

We're in the process of testing some new software here, and I just
published internally a little time-saving tip for our testers. I
think I've posted it here before, too, but thought it might be time to
repeat it:
If you receive an error message when you are testing Windows-based
software, try pressing CTRL + C before dismissing the message. This
command may succeed in copying the message content to the clipboard,
so that you can paste it into your feedback to the development team.
(You can do a quick test by pasting into Notepad; the method does work
in Windows XP.)
Happy Friday all,
