Hi Martin,
When you've found the bit of the map you want, you go into 'file', (top left of your screen), & 'print'. The page printed is what you've called up.
If you preview before printing you'll see what you're getting.

Thanks Gareth, I'll give that a try. Looks like you will have to get in quite early in the morning as they have already used about 10% of their daily tile allowance.

Just a heads-up on maps chaps.
MSN UK have an agreement with Ordnance Survey to use their maps. We as consumers, get to use them free on BING:)
http://www.bing.com/maps/

Tip. Use Internet Explorer with it. Select "Ordnance Survey" from the "Road" drop down box. You'll get the Ordnance Survey "Explorer" or "Land Ranger" maps depending on how much zoom you use.
Really very good :)

Top tips alvino78 & f0rm4t! I really like the Bing maps one - easy to use. I never realised you could get OS maps so easily and for free! :happy-clapping:

Thank you for sharing.

Yeah it's good. I use the Bing map-tools to track my hikes and keep a record of where, when and how far I've yomped. It's then all stored in your live account for reference :)
