Adrian, if you get the contact's name highlighted then go into the chat window, type the message and push enter. You'll get the warning that your message won't be sent until you're both online. That's the best I can suggest. Are you using the Jaws scripts for Skype? They do help. -----Original Message----- From: jaws-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jaws-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of adrian.rowe Sent: 20 July 2008 22:37 To: jaws-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [jaws-uk] skype help needed Please can anyone help me with a Skype question. I need to contact a Skype user that is on my list, and I seem to find, they are not online when I am. I want to post a written message for when they open their Skype. I'm pretty sure where to write the message, but I don't know how to actually send it. I would be very greatful if some one could give me directions on how to carry out this procedure after highlighting the persons name. With Many Thanks, Adrian Rowe Email address: adrian.rowe5@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx You can also contact me on Skype. Skype name: rubberdingey
