It depends on which part of the sentence you use it in:
He gave the book to Mrs. Jones and me.
Mrs. Jones and I went to the store.

It depends on the sentence. However, to ALWAYS get it right, do the following. Take out Mrs. Jones and think about whether me or I fits better. For example: The police department thanked Mrs. Jones and me/I. You would use me if there was no Mrs. Jones.... The police department thanked me. So, the correct grammar is: The police department thanked Mrs. Jones and me. Another example: Mrs. Jones and I/me are going to get ice cream. If there were no Mrs Jones it would be... I am going to get ice cream. So, the correct sentence is: Mrs. Jones and I are going to get ice cream.

"Mrs. Jones and I" as the subject: Mrs. Jones and I went to the market.
"Mrs. Jones and me" as the object: The grocer gave the bags to Mrs. Jones and me.
Unless you're Billy Paul, then it's "Me and Mrs. Jones" ('cause they've got a thing going on...).

It depends on the sentence.
He left the window open for Mrs. Jones and me.
You figure it out by using one at a time. For instance - He left the window open for Mrs. Jones. He left the window open for me.
OR - Mrs. Jones and I would like to attend the meeting. Same thing - Mrs. Jones would like to attend the meeting. I would like to attend the meeting.
If you're talking about the song, it's wrong.

Well, don't capitalize "me" and DO capitalize "Mrs." As for the rest it depends on the sentence:
Mrs. Jones and I are having a hard time keeping up with each other. (subject)
Mrs. Smith can not keep up with Mrs. Jones and me. (object of preposition)
or Mrs. Smith smacked Mrs. Jones and me. (direct object)
or even:
I wrote a book about Mrs. Jones and myself. (reflexive)

Mrs. Jones and I.
Think of it this way, take out the mrs. jones. Is it correct to say I went to the store or me went to the store. That is how you can figure it out.

It depends. First of all, "me" is an objective case pronoun, which means you would use it either as a direct object, indirect object, or something of the sort. "I" is a nominative case pronoun, meaning you'd use it as either a subject or a predicate noun. Here's two examples of correct sentences.
"The principal gave a monkey to Mrs. Jones and me." Forget Mrs. Jones for a minute. The principal gave a monkey to whom? The question "to whom" implies a need for a direct object, "me."
However:
"Mrs. Jones and I tripped over a banana peel left by a hybrid monkey." Who tripped? Since a subject is needed, "I" would be used.
Let me know if you need any more help!!! :D
