Default Pop the Task Creation Outlook form from Word

I am hoping this is relatively simple...

I have several word documents containing meeting minutes/technical
documentation. I want to be able to highlight a phrase, then execute a macro
that opens the standard Outlook Task Creation Dialog. I would like for the
highlighted phrase to be in the body of the task, and then I can easily fill
in the name, due date, etc., in the dialog.

One easy way I thought of would be to formulate the command line syntax and
then just execute the command line, but I cannot figure out how to do that,
either.

As you have probably deduced, I am fairly new to VBA... I have written a
few dozen VBA procedures in Excel but this is my first try at Word and/or
Outlook...

Help!

Jim
