If not, you make "make an app for that".

Send yourself an email with the list in it. refer to that email when
you need a number.

Problem solved. Update email list as needed.

You need to download Skype4COM from http://developer.skype.com/accessories,
register the .DLL file(*) and add its reference to your Excel project, read
the Help file, familiarise yourself with ActiveX programming in VBA,
and write some code. The Help file contains a few example scripts;
Call.vbs sould get you started.

Or you could try to start Skype with a commandline switch:
Skype /callto:<full number or name>
There's also a switch /shutdown to close Skype.

Good luck.

(*) FWIW: Skype4COM.DLL was already on my PC
(in %CommonProgramFiles%\Skype) and registered,
but you'll want the Help file.
