If you're just an occasional user, you might try my Firefox extension.
As you type in the DX prefix, it gives you a dropdown list of bearings
from your QTH; you can stop typing as soon as you see the one you want.

1 Install the extension into Firefox 2 or 3:

It tries to guess your grid square, but you probably need to type in the
  correct one.
