Catch Shape Hyperlink Click on an Excel Sheet
0
I have a private subroutine on an Excel sheet that looks like this:
Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
Call removeClient(Target.Parent.Row)
End Sub
It successfully catches normal hyperlinks. However, shapes with hyperlinks won't trigger this action when called. As these shapes are generated dynamically, I can't use a "Private Sub Shape1_Click" event either.
Any workaround?

You need to use the .onAction property
like so
Sub t()
Dim s As Shape
Set s = ActiveSheet.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeRectangle, 400, 70, 50, 50)
s.OnAction = "test_macro"
End Sub
Sub test_macro()
MsgBox "hello"
End Sub

That's really cool! Is there any way I can add arguments send to the subroutine/function? I'd need to send the name of the shape that was clicked.
