Subject: [vip_students] Skype Tutorial: Adding Contacts!


Hi Tom,

Below I have  drafted up a short tutorial on adding contacts to your
contacts list in Skype and I will try and explain the meaning of your
question.

If you wish to add a contact to your Skype list of contacts, first go into
Skype.

2. Press "alt key" and then right arrow to "contacts".

3. Press the down arrow and  hit enter on search for contacts.

4. If you know the name or email address of a particular contact you are
searching for then just type it in the edit box provided and  then tab to
the "search for contact button" then press the "space bar".

Note:For example, I did a search for "Tom Langan" and up popped your name in
a list box ready for me to  make my next move at adding you to my contacts
list.

5. When I down arrowed on the list of results to your name I then make my
next choice by going into the application data menu which is the "Third key"
from the right side of the "space bar".

6. From my list of choices in the application menu I choose:" Start Call".

Note: The reason I choose "Start Call" is because in this instance this is
the only option I can make in order to alert the person I am calling that I wish to make contact with them. I am hoping that they will notice my call which pops up on the screen saying something like: "User Paul Traynor wishes to add you to his or her contacts list". When I Paul started the call to you
Tom, I would have had to write in a short message perhaps explaining who I
am or what my business in calling you was. If "you Tom" are then happy to
accept my  call you tab to the "OK button" and press "enter key or Space
bar". Once you have accepted my call "both you Tom and I Paul" are now added to each others Skype contacts list. Its at this point I wish to bring in the
reason of why you would  find the question you asked relevant  Tom.

Question: this user has not shared their details with you- What does this
mean? and how does one share one's details with a new user.

7. If for some reason you are not present at your computer when the "user
Paul" contacts you naturally  Pauls request to make contact with you goes
unheard by Tom and no action is taken so what Skype does is "places the name Tom in Pauls list of Contacts but with the additional information "this user
has not shared their details with you"

Also the following factors can also cause this message you receive; *. Tom
does not wish to engage in any contact with Paul.
*. Tom is off-line at the time Paul tries to make contact and Tom will be
notified next time he turns on his computer that the user Paul wishes to
make contact.

*. Unless Tom responds to Pauls request positively Paul will continue to see
the message displayed that the user has not shared his details with you.

Was this tutorial  useful, please let me know!

Regards,

Paul.

   Hi Paul,
This would be great as XL/Jaws has changed a lot since I did my ECDL and
though I have not been using it much I now find I need to use it more.
Keep up the great work.

Subject: [vip_students] Excel Tutorial: What is a spread sheet?


Hi All, it has been on my mind for some time now to just go through
the basics of excel with you all. Please let me know if you feel this
is useful as I am not sure how many of you would even use excel but
even if you don't it is good to know what  excel is and what it does.

of a spread sheet:A spreadsheet is a sheet of paper that shows
accounting or other data in rows and columns; a spreadsheet is also a
computer application program that simulates a physical spreadsheet by
capturing, displaying, and manipulating data arranged in rows and
columns. The spreadsheet is one of the most popular uses of the
personal computer.

Okay now that we have some idea of what the spread sheet is, we can
simply call excel a "spread sheet program".

Most people will have the program "Excel" on their computers, if you
have then go into the "start menu, programs" and arrow down till you find
it.
If you don't find it directly in the programs menu then you may find
that arrowing down through the programs menu till you come to a
"Microsoft Office" sub menu then right arrowing into it and down
arrowing will locate it for you. When you come to it, just press the
"enter key".

When excel opens up you will be presented with lots and lots of
rectangular shapes called cells. These cells are  both numbered and
alphabetized.
Numbers run down the left hand side of the excel page, while letters
run across the top of the page.

For example you have the first cell on a spread sheet designated "cell A1"
the cell to the right of this cell is called "Cell B2" and the cell
directly beneath cell A1 is "Cell A2"

Now you can try out this for yourselves and just get a feel for the
page you are working in. As we go along, I will try and explain
useful shortcut keys which you can use within the Excel program both
jaws specific keys and excel specific keys. They will all combine to
help you use it more effectively.
I will wherever necessary try and  also include  those using
magnification if I feel it is necessary.

Regards for now,

Paul.
