In this tutorial I will show you how to make a skype auto reply bot in vb.net. This is very easy to make if you just follow along.
For this you need the skype4com.dll and library.
Make sure to add them ^^ as a reference.

Here is the fully commented code that you should read and write to your project:

Code:

Imports SKYPE4COMLib
Imports System.Windows.Forms

Public Class Form1
    Private skype As Skype
    Dim trigger As String = "msg=" 'use this as the command.
    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
        skype = New Skype 'put's skype as a new skype
        skype.Attach() 'attaches our program to skype.
        AddHandler skype.MessageStatus, AddressOf skype_stat
    End Sub
    Public Sub skype_stat(ByVal msg As ChatMessage, ByVal status As TChatMessageStatus)
        If msg.Body.Contains(trigger) Then 'if it has the trigger.
            Dim sendme As String = msg.Body.Replace(trigger, "") 'removes the trigger from the message. for example if the message was "msg=sunlight", the it would be "sunlight"
            skype.SendMessage(msg.Sender.Handle, cases(sendme)) 'sends message.
        End If

    End Sub
    Public Function cases(ByVal sent As String)
        Dim result As String
        Select Case sent
            
            Case Is = "hello" 'if the msg received is hello
                result = "hey" ' then send hey.
                Exit Select
            Case Is = "help" 'if the msg received is help
                result = "Sorry, no help available." ' then send this.
                Exit Select
            Case Is = "who" 'if the msg received is 'who'
                result = "this is Your Name's auto reply bot" 'the message sent will be this.
                Exit Select
                'add as many cases as you can, the more cases, the better.
            Case Else
                result = "Not a valid command"
        End Select

        Return result

    End Function
End Class

When you run it you should get this thing requesting permission on skype, accept it.





Here's it in action.

If anyone has trouble with this or simply can't make it I would suggest clownfish as they have one as well. However nice tutorial and I may give it a go later.

Clownfish will also work. But it makes people feel better when they make their own.

I agree making your own makes you feel better. Was just saying if someone can't make it or someone will not make it for them than that is the other way to do it.
