The end-of-cell symbol has a unique character code, and
MS Word apparently does not properly recognize it as a
whitespace character along with spaces, non-breaking
spaces, tabs, and end-of-paragraph marks. Instead of
seeing it as a delimiter, it considers it part of the preceding
string; but since it *knows* that a valid URL can't include
the end-of-cell mark it decides that the string can't be a URL.

Silly Word...
