Calling on a WP7 phone from a doc or xls file?

[anon5723001]

Is there a way to get a WP7 phone to hyperlink phone numbers in doc or xls files? My iPhone did it without jumping through any special hoops. But, the windowsphone is a better phone (not a good of a toy, though).

Is it something I have to do within MSOffice before putting them on my phone? I don't use the Skything. . . . the information is sensitive and private. I don't trust sending it "up somewhere".

I have several xls and doc files on my wp7 phone that I need to call from. I need to find a way to get the phone to recognize a phone number and hyperlink it so I can tap it to call that number. I'm sure it can be done. I just hope without too much hoop jumping.

I really don't want to go back to my iPhone 3gs, but I don't want to kill myself or someone else trying to write down phone numbers from my phone, so I can then call them from my phone while I'm driving down the road.

Looks like either nobody knows, or nobody cares . . .. . pitiful forum

If nobody responds, then chances are there's no way to do it, or nobody knows how. Either way, posting insults is probably not going to get you a response that you're looking for.

I'm not sure about how to make it show up as a hyperlink, but sometimes I just click the number, (it automatically highlights)and copy it into caller app. It can be annoying if you're not used to it, but it's easier than hubting down a pen and writing it down.
