Hi Cara, what happened for me, is, I pressed enter on the show contacts
menu, and only found one option, which was all, so I exited the
contacts menu, and found the manage groups sub menu, and there, I found
things like on line, etcetera, and it is worth noting that when I start
skype now, I have two trees in the table, the all tree, and the on line
tree, and I can expand or collapse either tree with the right and left
arrows, and now, the item in the menu that use to say show contact
groups, says hide contact groups, so should I have pressed enter on the
show contacts groups menu?  Thanks, just a misunderstanding on my part.

   Hey All, let me clarify right up front, that at the moment, as far  
as I can tell, grouping doesn't show busy / away status without  
creating a new group.  YOu can have groups to show you who is online  
or off, as well as those that might be waiting for your contact  
details and such.

   I'm currently researching how to add criteria to a group you  
create, as I'm sure this is possible to do.  This may allow one to  
show busy / away status and such.  Now whether it's actually  
accessible with VO at this point, is another story.  <smile>

Okay, so here goes.


? Go to your Contacts menu and click on 'Show contact Groups.'

? Now, in the same menu, you should have a new option available to  
you, which is 'Manage contact Groups.'

? In this new option, you should find two choices, Create new Group  
and Preset Groups - choose the later

? Now simply check the groups that you'd like to show up in your list.

   This should be all you need to do to get the contacts view showing  
you who is online and such.

  Hope this helps and will post more as I know more, K??

Smiles,

Cara  :)
