Hi,

It works. I use the latest skype and the latest (745) MT4 and my expert can send me IM. I think you used wrong code in your EA.
In new MT4 You should use: 

int SkypeSendInstantMessageW(string skype_name,string message,int status);
int SkypeSendSmsMessageW(string phone_number, string message);

The "SkypeSendSmsMessageA" or SkypeSendInstantMessageA won't work.
So you should modify the import section in your EA too:

//--- import functions
#import "SkypeMQL.dll"
int SkypeSendInstantMessageW(string skype_name,string message,int status);
int SkypeSendSmsMessageW(string phone_number,string message);
#import

The status in the code shouldbe : STATUS_OFFLINE otherwise this will cause a sending error...

//--- send IM
   err = SkypeSendInstantMessageA(InpSkypeName,InpTextMessage,STATUS_OFFLINE);
   if(err==ERROR_NO_ERRORS) msg="Sent IM to " + InpSkypeName + ", " + InpTextMessage;
   else msg="Error sending IM to " + InpSkypeName + ", error: " + SkypeErrorToStr(err);
   Print(msg);

And this section should be this:

string SkypeErrorToStr(int err_no)
{
   switch(err_no)
   {
      case ERROR_UNKNOWN:     return("Unknown error");
      case ERROR_NO_ERRORS:   return("No error");
      case ERROR_ATTACH:      return("Do not attach");
      case ERROR_AUTHORIZED:  return("User not authorized");
      case ERROR_STATUS:      return("Wrong status");
      case ERROR_TIMEOUTS:    return("Timeout is over");
      case ERROR_RUNNING:     return("Skype is not running");
      case ERROR_SENDING:     return("Error sending");
      case ERROR_VALUE:       return("Wrong value");
      case ERROR_ACCESS:      return("Access denied");
      case ERROR_SKYPE4COM:   return("Skype4COM not registered");
   }
   return("");
}

After the corrections it will work to 1 username.

This looks like a very nice tool. Can you confirm that it works currently? from the comments, it seems it may be broken?
