How do I create a hyperlink to a web page in Excel?

I click on Insert/Hyperlink. Click the on the "Browse the Web" button and
slect a web site. After creating the hyperlink, I am unable to open the
hyperlink. I get a error message box saying, "Unable to open. Unable to
locate Internet server or Proxy server".

Try copying the webpage address and pasting it into a cell. With the cell
selected, press F2 and Enter and it will create the hyperlink for you. HTH

F2 and Enter did create a hyperlink. But clicking on the hyperlink resulted
in the same error message, "Unable to open. Unable to locate Internet server
or Proxy server". I think the problem is some how related to EXCEL unable to
access the internet. I am able to create a hyperlink and open it in WORD.
