Hi Steve,

It's quite easy:

revGoUrl "http://www.google.com/search?q=" & urlEncode(tWord)

The process is very simple: you do it into your web browser and you  
build the right string in Rev.
You will use another strings a bit different depending on the  
engines :-)

Best regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.
