Hello, Hammer!
Thank you SO much for your reply... that script was just the ticket! :-)
When I pasted the script into an editbox, and hit "Enter", I saw this reponse:
* Is /say an alias? Yes - in the file C:\Program Files\mIRC\aliases.ini
I then opened up my aliases, and replaced every incidence of "/say" with "/me",
then I repasted that script in the editbox and hit "Enter" a second time, and saw this:
* Is /say an alias? No - that is not the problem.
And now, I'm very happy to report, "/say" finally works again!!
Thank you so much for your input - you've been a great help!!!! :-)
