Thank you for the great tip. I found it easier to press Control+1 > enter on
contact > use JAWS cursor to read from bottom of screen upwards. The arrow
up or down solution you suggested did not work for me as it resulted in
silence and a message read without context--kinda confusing JAWS speech.

Ctrl+1 puts you in the contact list, then arrow up and down to pick a
contact and press Enter to move to the edit box for typing to that contact.
Once you've done that, Ctrl+5 will move to the list of chat messages between
you and that contact, and up and down arrows will move through those
messages. The JAWS cursor is likely to be confusing to use because it will
read things alongside the list, so I recommend just leaving the PC cursor
active and using arrows.

Hi all, 

I'm wondering if there is a hotkey to quickly place me on the chat screen to
send text messages back and forth when communicating with another person.
For example, if I'm in the Contacts screen (Control+1), I want to press a
hotkey to be taken to my chat history to then use the JAWS cursor to review
all chat messages. 

I'm running: '

JAWS16 

Skype Version 7.1.60.105

This is script version 6.9a, revision 813, for Skype versions 6.9 and
higher.

Thanks,
