I never heard of such a thing, but I suppose anything is possible.
Search (Google?) for software that can run on your PC that drives a Bluetooth phone. How it would interact with Outlook would presumably be that Outlook sees it as a phone. Surely possible, I guess, but whether or not anyone has done it is another matter. More significantly, there has recently been some news in the press of security issues with Bluetooth phones where "bad guys" can capture and use, including stealing phone time and data on the device, from Bluetooth-enabled phones without the owners's permission. Beware. Hope this is useful to you. Let us know. rms art wrote: hi, i was wondering if i could use outlook and make a phonr call thru a bluetooth phone ?

if you can select it as a modem in Outlook's dialer, you can use it to make
calls. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Coauthor, OneNote 2003 for Windows (Visual QuickStart Guide) Author, Google and Other Search Engines (Visual QuickStart Guide) Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com OneNote Tips: "art" wrote in message ... hi, i was wondering if i could use outlook and make a phonr call thru a bluetooth phone ?

call a person thru bluetooth phone ?
I am able to select it as a modem, and it will send the number to the phone and dial. Unfortantly, it either gives me a fast busy or just hangs up. I just want to get the number to the phone since I have thousands of contacts in Outlook and only hunderds fit in the phone (with no decent search capabilitites). It may be a network probelm since ATT doesn't support DUN calling. Is there a way to just send the number (like a scrach pad) and I press dial on the phone? Other ways?
