How do you insert a link in an email message?

In Apple's Mail, you can highlight a word or several words in an email body, go to the Edit menu, and then select Link -> Add... and a box pops up where you can type or paste in a link. When you close the box, the word(s) you highlighted become hyperlinked to whatever link you entered into the box. It's a great way to insert/embed links in an email rather than filling your message with visible (and often long and ugly) URLs.

Is there any way to do this with Entourage 2008?

Thanks.

There's no way to do that, unfortunately. However, you can create
hyperlinked messages in Word and then send them to Entourage (File>Send
to>Mail Recipient (as HTML) ). You can also go to ScriptBuilders
<http://scriptbuilders.net> and search for a script called 'Make Hyperlinks
X'.

fyi... make hyperlinks x didn't work for me with 10.5/entourage 2008,
got the following message:
"this script only works with a new (or saved draft) message window in
HTML format, in the front."
