The Active Screen provides a snapshot of your application 
as it appeared when you performed the corresponding step 
during a recording session. An Active Screen can be 
captured for every step you record. Additionally, depending 
on the Active Screen capture options that you used while 
recording, the page displayed in the Active Screen can 
contain detailed property information on each object 
displayed on the page.

The Active Screen enables you to parameterize object values 
and insert checkpoints, methods, and output values for 
almost any object in the page after you finish your 
recording session, even if your application is not 
available or you do not have a step in your test 
corresponding to the selected object

active screen is feature provided by qtp it is used for the 
snapshot of each and evry statements the user can 
understand the script more easly and enhance the script

We can say Active Screen is just a snap shot of screen 
recorded while peforming any action.
We can see which object on screen we interacted that is 
highlighted.
