I can only help with #3...

You can capture the screen or window to a file with PMView OR just save 
the DFSWORK.LOG file created by DFSEE an post an excerpt from that.

BTW, DFSee is now up to V 9 with a bunch of improvements. You may want 
to consider an upgrade. A time-limited demo version can be had at 
http:\\www.dfsee.com.
