Skype Toolbar for MS Office screencast

If you use both Skype and Microsoft Office, then the Skype Toolbar for Microsoft Office is problably a tool that can be useful for you.

It allows you to :

  • Send the file you are currently working on via Skype file transfer
  • Communicate with the author of a document directly from within Office
  • Calling (or sms) any phone number found in a document
  • Creating Skype links from phone numbers

We have made major efforts to support all Office versions and applications. All the way back to Office 2000 and up to the present latest version Office 2007.

To learn more about this toolbar and see it in action I recommend viewing the 13 minute demonstration that can be found here

Jim Courtney has an uncanny ability to find bugs and faults so I sent him the link to the demonstration last night and he wrote an excellent summary of it on SkypeJournal. Read it here:

You can download the latest version of the actual toolbar from here:

Hope you find it useful!
