Hyper link to an outlook contact from excel

I'm using Office 2003 Pro, running on Win XP pro.

I am creating an excell spreadsheet with various colomns
one of which is a name. I want to be able to click tht
cell containing a name and hyperlink (or by some other
method) to open the relevant contact in outlook. This
will prevent the need for me to go and search for this
contact manually.???

Does anyone know if this is possible??

Bugss

See http://www.slipstick.com/contacts/links.htm for the item syntax you
need.
