Default editing a hyperlink

Instead of a hyperlink why not just double click on the symbol desired.
right click sheet tabview codeinsert thisyou may want to restrict the
cell range
Private Sub Worksheet_BeforeDoubleClick(ByVal Target As Range, Cancel As
Boolean)
ActiveWorkbook.FollowHyperlink Address:= _
"http://www.investors.com/StockResearch/StockCheckup.aspx?symbol=Target"
End Sub
OR, use and external query and if you have many do a loop to get info for
all. I do this for clients often.

I have a stock symbol MED in A1. In A2 I have inserted the following link:

http://www.investors.com/StockResear...p.aspx?symbol=

I want to concatenate the symbol in A1 into the hyper link in A2 like
shown below so that the link will show the data for the stock symbol MED.

http://www.investors.com/StockResear...spx?symbol=MED

Is this possible?

Example
A1 A2
MED hyperlink
