Can I make Phone Calls directly from Excel or Outlook?

[Stuart S.]

Hello,

With regards to the questions in the subject, is this possible to do? Also,
if it's so only in Outlook, can I export the files from Excel into Outlook?
And if that can happen, where do I found out how to do that? Can excel files
also be exported into a contact manager such as ACT? I think ACT has the
phone capability. If you know this is so, could you also respond to this?

Thanks Very Much!!!

Stuart
