Version: 2008 Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard) Processor: Intel I'm new to the Mac. I want to insert a URL into a message so that a word or words becomes a clickable link - something you can do in Outlook. On this forum, I found a script program (something with which I am completely unfamiliar) that apparently is the only way to accomplish this. Entourage apparently does not have this capability, which seems incredible to me. The script I downloaded was called makehyperlinkssx_221. Two questions: 1. Is it true that Entourage does not allow you to insert hyperlinks? 2. If so, how do i make this script I downloaded work? Thanks! Emile

Is it true that Entourage does not allow you to insert hyperlinks? Yes, but you should know if you simply paste the URL into a message, the URL will be a clickable URL when the recipient reads the message on the other end. > 2.

Have you followed the installation directions in the ReadMe document yet? -- Send responses to the relevant news group rather than to me, as E-mail sent to this address may be devoured by my very hungry SPAM filter.

Hi, can you tell me how/where I can find this script? I'm also a bit new to Mac - but I'm loving it! Many thanks.
