Error messages when setting up hyperlink links

[Pitch]

I'm trying to use the hyperlink feature of Excel 2004 for the first
time. I am able to right-click, select "Hyperlink" and then type in
the full link in the resulting window's "Link to" field. I then click
okay, and the link is now hot.

However, when I click on that text in that field, I get an error
message:

"Unable to open "http://www.cnn.com". Cannot locate the Internet
server or proxy server.

I'm definitely hooked to the Internet, and Word docs that have
hyperlinks work fine.

Any ideas?

dang. Never mind (again). Figured it out. Apologies!
