Hi Luis, Thank you for taking the trouble to reply. You are right! I had forgotten to check that the hot keys were enabled.
OK. But how can I manage the rest of the many things that Skype offers? Is there a JAWS tutorial on the Skype script? For instance I discovered, by accident, that alt-1 gives a list of contacts. I also discovered that alt-2 names previous conversations. The rest of the numbers don't seem to give me anything!

Subject: Re: [Skypeenglish] request for help You have to enable the hotkeys option in order to use alt-page up to answer a call. Go to tools, options, advance and enable hotkeys. That should solve your problem.

Subject: Re: [Skypeenglish] request for help Hi, I have been using Skype ever since it first appeared as a wonderful, easy to use, fully accessible Swedish product! I have watched it grow in complexity and inaccessibility over the years. The scripts have become essential to enable me, as a JAWS user, to keep up with Skype. I am very grateful to the script authors for that! I am now using Skype 6.6 with JAWS 14 running windows 7 and I am struggling yet again. I may have missed some useful advice on this list but can anyone direct me to a set of instructions on how to pick an incoming call (the alt-page up fails to do it) and other basics, please?
