Hi Guys,

General Question.

I created a small "dynamic" Excel project with Office Plus 2021, without using a User-form. (I'm learning to work with VBA and excel in general)

In my sheets I have inserted Shapes and ActiveX-Controls.

The Shapes I provided with hyperlink references to jump to a corresponding sheet after selection.
The ActiveX Controls (such as command buttons) perform various other simple tasks by running macro's.

After using the hyperlink-reference, I can run a macro, all by 1 click of the mouse,

After running a macro, there is one click extra needed, to make the hyperlink-references work again, e.g. clicking an empty cell in my sheet

Is it possible to prevent that extra click. (Its somewhat important for this little project to use very little actions)

With regards,

Johannes

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
After rethinking, I found a simple solution and assigned the macro to a shape as well.

It seems that the extra step is only necessary when using a control and running a macro.
Then you need to that extra click in a cell in your sheet to use your shapes with hyperlink references again.

Cheers,
