How can i find out the email address of the prson im chatting to, to use in a plugin?  Is there a tag etc?

the emailadress is right next to their nickname right above the conversation .

Yea i know that, but i want to be able to get the email address to use as a variable in a plugin.

in Parse command/tag function, you get a object of ConversationWindow...you can use its property "Contacts" ...that contains all the contants in the conversation. For detail I think you have to look into Messenger API

oConversationWindow.Contacts.Item(0).Property(1)
that will get the first user in the conversation's e-mail address (there are different ways, but that is the most foolproof).
change the parameter in Item to change which user you get the e-mail of.

Could this code do the job, it gets each contact and adds it to sresult? In ParseCommand or maybe as a tag?

Hah

code:

---

   
On Error GoTo EH
    Dim MSNCont As IMessengerContact
   
    If (StrComp(LCase(sCommand), "/xconvppl", vbTextCompare) = 0) Then
   sResult = "Contacts: "
    For Each MSNCont In oConversationWnd.Contacts
    sResult = sResult + " " + MSNCont.SigninName
    Next
    ParseCommand = True
    Exit Function
    End If
    ParseCommand = False
    Exit Function
EH:
    MsgBox Err.Description, vbOKOnly, Err.Number
Exit Function

Here you go, i got bored so i made a working plugin and source (VB) with that code in to see it working its attached in the installer below.

It will install the source to the plugin directory of plus, so if u have any projects in there already, please move them before you install it, otherwise its simple.

Thanks
