Outlook & Skype?

[Al Dykes]

Outlook/2007 Contacts seems to be oblivious to Skype calling over the
Internet. Is there something I am missing or is there an add-in to
Outlook that adds the capability?


I know that Skype can import Outlook numbers but to use them I can't
just click on the Outlook page, I have to switch to Skype can find the
contact. My Contacts list is 600+ names and the current method does't
work for me.

I've got that. With ~600 phone numbers in Outlook, it is quicker to
dial a number by hand than to try to find it in my Skype contacts.
