Inserting Links/Scripts

I'm new to the Mac. I want to insert a URL into a message so that a word or words becomes a clickable link - something you can do in Outlook. On this forum, I found a script program (something with which I am completely unfamiliar) that apparently is the only way to accomplish this. Entourage apparently does not have this capability, which seems incredible to me.
The script I downloaded was called makehyperlinkssx_221. Two questions:

1. Is it true that Entourage does not allow you to insert hyperlinks?
2. If so, how do i make this script I downloaded work?

Thanks!

Hi, can you tell me how/where I can find this script? I'm also a bit new to Mac - but I'm loving it!

Many thanks.

You should start with #1 in the AppleScript series to learn how AppleScripts
work and how to assign shortcuts.
