Default How can I make a phone call using my contacts?

Just in case my question is not clear.
In my outlook contact I have the option to dial directly out of my outlook
contacts. How do I set that up? I have VOIP.

Outlook does not dial at all - it uses the Windows dialer.

Windows Dialer?

So, it will not use VOIP... Does Bill Gates know that he messed up here?
aww man!

Any suggestions on how to get this set up? Since Milly Staples said it
would use Windows Dialer, I am assuming an analog line. correct?

That is correct, it uses the analog modem. For anything else, you will need either additional software and/or hardware.

We just implemented VoIP and we must use Office Communicator to get the
integration between Office and our VoIP phones. You need to look into setting
up an Communication server, then install the clients on each of the machines.
It's a pretty long process, but it works great!
