Hi Mick
you are saying
However, I have still noticed that the actual menu bar titles still don't exist; all the content of each menu does though.
I am not sure if this is on all systems or I am just misunderstanding. When alt key is pressed to pop-up a menu bar pressing left and right arrow shifts over the menu bars.. file, view, contact... all of are spoken to me by NVDA. once one of the is expanded by pressing enter or arrowing down its items are spoken too.

Hi Peter,

Thanks for pointing this out, I did not know this at all.
I use NVDA all the time now, so since I actually couldn't read the menu itmes in the first place, I never found it. 

Doing alt then v then a then s turned it on fine.

Hello mick...
with latest version of skype; there are no problems with menu accessibility I have just checked it using rev 316 binary. There is a setting in the menu (view\accessibility\simple graphic...) after activating this menu is well accessible. even the contact list can be read with NVDA. for answering / hanging there is a chance to define global shortcuts so I see no problems with that. then your solution to accessible chat log and we are done with skype... at least for now I believe..

Hi John,

Thanks ever so much for this list.
I have already been able to make the skype text chat windows accessible, well at elast so that you can navigate the text in both the input and output fields. 

I'm sure I will get more done in the next little while.
The chat stuff isn't committed to sourceforge yet since I am still working on what else I can make accessible.
Skype though is always going to be a problem with NVDA untill we can work out how to get the names of the menu items. I assume that Thunder and System Access both use hooks for the text adding functions for Windows device contexts, and they keep a register of what is added at what coordinates, then it uses accLocation on the menu items and simply gets the text that is there.
I really don't want to start playing with hooks for device contexts since I really think that is going to slow down NVDA, but I might start looking in to this if there is definitly no other way to get the names.
