Automating steps to copy URL from IE into Word

This seemed like a Windows question more than a Word question, I sent
it to a Windows newsgroup, and was told it was a Word question. So here
goes.



Here's the kind of thing I do a million times. I've just copied some
text from a web page into Word. Now I want to copy the URL of that web
page into Word.

I do Alt+Tab to switch back to the Internet Exporer page.

I press Alt+D to place cursor in address bar.

I press Ctrl+C to copy the address.

I use Alt+Tab switch back to Word.

I press Ctrl+V to paste the url into Word.

Would there be a way to automate these five steps into one action,
whether done by a .vbs file or some other means?
