    You can get free software to make it easier to read/search/print ... but I've forgotten the name of it ... it is mentioned on here a couple of times so try the search

    Skype doesn't automatically keep all the chat though, you need 3rd party stuff to manage it.

    Well there is an option to save chat log but it converts it into one mass of data so that you cant space out the duration and date and time.
    So what i do is go into log history and print screen and paste into paint and save as Jpeg and past that into a file. Thta way I have clear details of the date, day, how long i Have skyped for and the phone I called or the person i called.
    Its good proof I a real friendhsip because you can clearly see how many hours you chat to your loved one.
    This is only data mine, and not all my soppy love talk with my girl

    I used the "print screen" on the keyboard, paste in a microsoft word. Although it can't print the whole chat logs. What important to pick up is the dates of the chats.

    I used Sky History when doing mine and then went through it deleting things I didn't want someone else reading before printing it off.
