Title: Script to look up selection in Google

I just copied this from the AppleScript mailing list. Select a word or phrase in Entourage, run the script, and it will look it up in Google, using your default browser:

tell application "Microsoft Entourage" to set s to window 1's selection
if (count s) is 0 then set s to (display dialog "Search terms:" default answer "")'s text returned
if (count s) is 0 then error number -128
set text item delimiters to "+"
set s to "http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=" & s's words
set text item delimiters to {""}
open location s
