Drag Drop a Hyperlink into an Outlook message

Can anyone point me to how I would drag and drop a hyperlink from my C#
application into Outlook? I can pass the URL as text, and Outlook 2003
recognizes it as a URL and activates the link, however, I would like to have
the display text be different from the actual URL (some of my urls can get
pretty long, and I don't want to confuse our users).

So, for example

string a_url = "http://blah.blah.blah";
DoDragDrop(a_url, DragDropEffects.Copy);

will drag and drop the url to an outlook, but it shows up as
http://blah.blah.blah and I would like it to be like: Click

Thanks,

-Paul
