O.P. Retrieve who the user is chatting with?
When I'm in a conversation, I want my plugin to know who the other user is (email address), if this is possible with the API for VB6?

Thanx.

Just hover your mouse over their display picture.

It is not possible with the API of Plus!. What you would have to do is use the oMessenger object passed through Initialize and try and get the open convos there and see who the person is chatting with. I will edit my post if I think of a way to do it.

Also this has nothing to do with the question. He is trying to make a program not see what the title of the window is.

i can't remember exactly, but i think you want something like:
code:
Set MSN = New oMessenger
    Dim iContact As MessengerAPI.IMessengerContact
    Dim iConv As MessengerAPI.IMessengerConversationWnd
   
    For Each iContact In iConv.Contacts
        MsgBox iContact.SigninName
    Next
SoundPacks   -   Scripts   -   Skins

that's not a bug, thats an unexpected feature

I can succesfully create a Messenger object with:

code:
Set oMessenger = New MessengerAPI.Messenger

I can succesfully show MyFriendlyName in a MsgBox

I try to use these stuff in the ParseCommand function.

But I can't get the Contacts-code from above working...
MSN+ stops when I try to do this:

code:
        Dim iContact As MessengerAPI.iMessengerContact
        Dim iConv As MessengerAPI.IMessengerConversationWnd

and then says there is no such MSN+ function supported.

I also don't see the codes like iMessengerContact in the dropdownlist as element of MessengerAPI when I'm coding...
Does someone know how I can fix this?

after I added this on the top of my class module, the MessageContact part worked...

code:
Private Declare Function PostMessage Lib "user32" Alias "PostMessageA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, ByVal lParam As Long) As Long

private const WM_USER = &10
