Hi,

I have a day to day task to send out bug summaries.
The bug summaries are in a specific format: "NNNNN: bug summary".. where NNNNN are the bug number.
In each bug summary i'm creating a hyperlink to the bug page, the link for each bug has the same format:
http://bugs.net/bugs/view.php?id=NNNNN.
The number in the summary and the number in the link are the same.

I want to create a VBA script that will search for the specific text format: "NNNNN: blah blah" and create a hyperlink to the address: http://bugs.net/bugs/view.php?id=NNNNN.
I want this to be done before i'm sending the email.

Is it possible?
Thanks!
udi.
 
My searches online didn't produce this info, so thanks a lot!
 
I should have mentioned that i'm new to VBA.
With the help of link you provided i found this code:
Sub MailURL()
Dim OutApp As Object
Dim OutMail As Object
Dim strbody As String
Set OutApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OuitMail = OutApp.CreateItem(0)
strbody = "<HTML><BODY>"
strbody = strbody & "<A href=http://www.MrExcel.com>URL Text</A>"
strbody = strbody & "</BODY></HTML>"
On Error Resume Next
With OutMail
.To = "APerson@Somewhere.com"
.Subject = "Testing URL"
.HTMLBody = strbody
.Display
'.Send
End With
On Error GoTo 0
Set OutMail = Nothing
Set OutApp = Nothing
End Sub​

Tried to implement the code you suggested as a solution to my problem:
strCode = inputbox ("enter number')
strLinkText= strcode & "Bug summary"
strLink = "http://bugs.net/bugs/view.php?id=" & strCode
objDoc.Hyperlinks.Add objSel.Range, strLink, "", "", strLinkText, ""

my attempts was not successful, i keep getting a compiling error.

i'm kind of lost here..
can you help please?
