Skyping !

Just set up Skype and tested it out with a landline call, great quality through my speakers and the end user agreed the call was very clear.

I will be testing the video once my contacts accept my Skype requests.

www.skype.com for the FREE download, Skype to Skype is FREE over your BBand, Skype to LandLine is about 12p per minute in the UK.

Cheers

Use the above link for a fantastic array (joke) of programming information, I especially like the VBA stuff in here, many hours of really useful help and worked examples of code you can copy and paste and test/run in your own systems to see exactly how it works.
