Hello,
Forgive me if this has been brought up before.
If I use SKYPE(OUT) to call, let's say, the pharmacy, how do I enter my prescription number? There is no "touch tone".

It would be nice if it were that easy...but it is not.
There may be a different system in place in Spain, where you hail from, but where am; there is a touch "tone" associated with the keypad. These tones are unique to the #s they are assigned to...making a bit of a song or a tune if you dial a series of them rapidly.
These "tones", recognized as numbers, are not generated by SKYPE once I make my phone connection. I can not "dial" numbers once the line is "open".
I sure hope that's clear.

Skype in Spain is no different to any other version that I know of.
Why not try this
http://forum.skype.com/viewtopic.php?t=26716 but as far as I thought you could send DTMF tones from the Skype keypad but perhaps I an wrong.

Thank-you, Rocketman for sticking with me on this.
The download works!
If this "DTMF" is supposed to work in SKYPE: 1.4.0.84...it doesn't work for ME!
It was my ignorance that suggested your phone system might be different, not your SKYPE version.
Thanks again!
