How to change a pasted web link to hyperlink
 

I have designed a worksheet wherein the cells contains the following
information

The webpage address link
A summary of the page to which the link points

Now i wish to hyperlink the webpage adresses which are currently not
in hyperlink blue probably becuase i cut - pasted them from the
webpage

How can i do this in bulk or is there some free available addin that
does this as i have in excess of 500 links stored this manner

Remember i wish to colour only the link not the cell which has other
info too
