Skype Toolbar for Office updated - now supporting Office 2007
By
Peter Kalmström on June 12, 2007 in .
Last week we finally published this long awaited hotfix and can now fully support Office 2007.
The range of supported MS Office applications now looks like this:
The main features are:
- Send the current file that you are working with through Skype file transfer
- Recognize phone numbers in text and:
- Call those phone numbers
- Send sms (if the number is a mobile)
- Create Skype links
- Collaboration - communicate with the author of the documents.
The new interface for those applications that support the Office 20007 Ribbon looks like this:
I will expand with some screencasts soon about this!

Where can I get the updated tool bar? The last one I saw on the Skype Site was dated 2006.

Ok, Great new add-in and very much appreciated. One problem, though...
I rum Office 2007 (SP2). I have approx 200+ contacts in my list and the toolbar is turned on. As i go from one to the other, I notice that the gree "Start Call" icon is greyed out for some even though there is a correctly formatted number.
Any ideas...?
Mike
