Silvio,
For a serious telephony from your application, you should use some VOIP Library.
I am using VOIP SDK system which allows me to call any phone after I click on the database and read a record where the phone number is in some field. I can also save the conversation, react on call, define all kind of actions and much more.
Of course for complex VOIP application you must use VOIP server (Asterisk for example) and then you can build even a hotel telephony system if you want.
Also you would need an account with some VOIP provider.

For some simple use, call through SkyPe might be sufficient but also not so cheap.
Unfortunatelly I never used SkyPe for telephone calls so I cannot help.
