WHEN ON THE NET CAN YOU SAVE THE PAGE YOU ARE VIEWING to your desktop ?

I do not mean the address but the actual page

Thankyou

Sure.
You can save anything that is showing on your PC desktop as a 'screenshot'.

i.e.:

Screenshots are great and there are many free programs around. I have acrobat professional and print/save the page as a pdf.

The is one called cutepdf that allows you to print to a pdf file.

A program called SnagIt let's you take screenshots & save (along with altering them, marking them up, etc). It's not free but does give you a 30 day trial. Windows 7 has a screen capture tool that's generally pretty robust.

you can also go to File, Save Page As, then save as "page.html"

While not saving the page to your desktop, Microsoft OSs give you the option of saving webpages to work offline:

If you have Vista or Windows 7, you already have a snip tool.

If you have Vista or Windows 7, you already have a snip tool.

Is that what you use to cut holes in the ceiling with?

If you are "…on the net" aren't you working in your browser? So isn't this a question about how to save a page with your browser? Most that I know of provide several saving options available by the usual commands. However as a web-page is an assembly of various parts—pictures, text, links etc, the 'on the desktop' form may not look like a page to you. F'rinstance some will create a HTML icon, but stick all the required content in a similarly named folder. Click the icon, the saved page opens—no internet connection required— You can pillage the folder for jpegs and such, but discarding it breaks the page.

What exactly do you want from your 'save page'?

Just hit the "Print Screen" key, then open Paint, located in Start/Programs/Accessories folder, then "Edit" and "Paste.
Then Save As ...
FastStone Image Viewer is free and has a Capture tool also.
