printing skype history

How can I print a list of skype calls from my account?
A caveat is that I'm almost entirely interested in regular, not skypeout or skypein calls, which are recorded and available online. I need this for evidence that my relationship with my fiancée, who I'm sponsoring for US residency, is bonafide (among many other documents, of course).
thanks!!!

If that doesn't work, the only other thing I found was this thread.

tehgeekmeister is correct. Your online Skype history doesn't record the free calls you make, and I can't come up with any way of exporting those free calls, or of finding an easy-to-reach record of calls in a local cache on the computer.
The only thing I can say would be to take screenshots of the call history page in Skype, scrolling down the page and taking several screenshots one after another. Then print the history from the pictures. This has the added advantage of being pretty hard to fake, while a plain list would be easy to doctor.
If you do have some calls that you want to export from your account page on Skype online, there is still no need to copy and paste between Excel and Word.
1. Export the call list from your account page and open the .csv file in Excel.
2. Highlight the column with the data
3. Go to "Data" and select "Text to Columns"
4. Select "delimited" and hit next
5. Select the "semicolon" checkbox
6. Hit finish, and the text is now separated

Thought this might be useful to some for printing the call list and being able to sort your calls.
1. Export the call list, it's saved as a "xxxxx.csv" file.
2. Open this csv file in Excel.
3. Highlight and copy the list.
4. Paste the list into Word, it will be a table.
5. Convert the table to text.
6. Convert this BACK to a table but make sure to check the separator option using ";" which SKYPE places by default between each column entry. This makes a new table with information in separate columns.
7. Copy this table and paste it back into Excel. It will have the columns separated so you can sort your calls by Destination, Cost, Duration,..etc.
