Thanks in advance

Try this:

Put this word in Cell A1:
Dinosaur

Then put this formula in Cell C1:
=HYPERLINK("http://search.yahoo.com/search?p="&A1&"&fr=FP-tab-web-t-274&toggle=1&cop=&ei=UTF-8","Click
here to search")

Clcking on Cell C1 will open a Yahoo search for the word in Cell A1.

(Sorry, no macros necessary....unless you really want to.)

Does that help?

Regards,
Ron
