Thanks for the replies I got to my previous post.

My client decided to try using Skype for outgoing calls from his office.
When I investigated, I discovered that Skype kindly provides both an API and
a COM dll for developers.

https://developer.skype.com/

Using the dll, it takes three lines of code to place a call:

  Dim oSkype As New SKYPE4COMLib.Skype
  Dim oCall As New SKYPE4COMLib.Call
  Set oCall = oSkype.PlaceCall(textPhoneNumber)
