Hi Noreen,
Just to add to what Paul has said below, I tried the skype scripts and while
they were useful in the past when the older versions of the program were not
as accessible as we might have liked, they have, in recent times, actually
made it harder for jaws users to work with Skype!
There really is no need for them any more and you should have no problems
with later versions of skype now.
Regards,
Stuart.

Hi Noreen,
Skype 3.0 is the latest version and considering your version of jaws which I
know you have, you don't require scripts for it to work. Here is the
download link for you or anyone else who wishes to download it.
http://download.skype.com/SkypeSetup.exe

>>
>> When excel opens up you will be presented with lots and lots of

>> Numbers run down the left hand side of the excel page, while letters
