insert hyperlinks

[jytioh]

I have this code from somewhere which replace any URL and email with hyperlinks. However there's a small imperfection to it. If I have an URL eg http://abc.com...abc the code will fail as the whole chunk will be taken as the url of the hyperlink. Anyone here can help me to improve the code below?

Thanks.

Function LinkURLs(inText)
Dim objRegExp, strBuf
Dim objMatches, objMatch
Dim Value, ReplaceValue, iStart, iEnd
strBuf = ""
iStart = 1
iEnd = 1
Set objRegExp = New RegExp
objRegExp.Pattern = "\b(www|http|\S+@)\S+\b" ' Match URLs and emails
objRegExp.IgnoreCase = True ' Set case insensitivity.
objRegExp.Global = True ' Set global applicability.
Set objMatches = objRegExp.Execute(inText)
For Each objMatch in objMatches
iEnd = objMatch.FirstIndex
strBuf = strBuf & Mid(inText, iStart, iEnd-iStart+1)
If InStr(1, objMatch.Value, "@") Then
strBuf = strBuf & GetHref(objMatch.Value, "EMAIL", "_BLANK")
Else
strBuf = strBuf & GetHref(objMatch.Value, "WEB", "_BLANK")
End If
iStart = iEnd+objMatch.Length+1
Next
strBuf = strBuf & Mid(inText, iStart)
LinkURLs = strBuf
End Function

Function GetHref(url, urlType, Target)
Dim strBuf
strBuf = "<a href="""
If UCase(urlType) = "WEB" Then
If LCase(Left(url, 3)) = "www" Then
strBuf = "<a href=""http://" & url & """ Target=""" & _
Target & """ style=""text-decoration: none; color: #000066; font-weight: normal;"">" & url & "</a>"
