Add web link to email in Entourage 2004 MAC

In the older version of Office (x) I could add a web link to the email
from the "Insert" menu in Entourage then choose link from Favorites-

I no longer see this option in Office 2004-

Any ideas on where they might have moved this function to??

It's because Internet Explorer got life-ended during the period when 2004
was being made.

You can get a script of Barry Wainwright's from

MacScripter.net <http://macscripter.net/scriptbuilders/>

that will do the same thing from the front window of Safari. I don't think
Bookmarks (Favorites) are scriptable.

There is also a script for OmniWeb at MacScripter.net.

They're not, but the bookmarks file is available to read as an xml data set,
from which the info is available.

I'll have to look at that...
