[Larry]

How do you programmatically turn a url into a hyperlink pointed to that
url?

Thanks,

This would be the minimum, assuming that the url is selected (and nothing
else):

ActiveDocument.Hyperlinks.Add _
Anchor:=Selection.Range, _
Address:=Selection.Text

You might want to do some error-checking. ;-)

Thanks much. I should have been able to figure this out, from previous
macros I have that work with hyperlinks, but it's been a while and it
wasn't fresh to my memory. The newsgroups remain invaluable.
