The code below works perfectly fine:


In Module1:


Code:
Sub a


    Msgbox "a"

    Sheet1.Shapes("MyShape").OnAction = "b"


End Sub


Sub b


    Msgbox "b"

    Sheet1.Shapes("MyShape").OnAction = "a"


End Sub


However, if say in Module2 I also have two Subs, a and b, then I would like to refer to those Subs, instead of the ones in Module1.


But this does not work:


Code:
Sub a


    Msgbox "a"
    
    'either


    Sheet1.Shapes("MyShape").OnAction = Module2."b"


    'or


    Sheet1.Shapes("MyShape").OnAction = Module2.b


    'fails

End Sub


Sub b


    Msgbox "b"


    'either


    Sheet1.Shapes("MyShape").OnAction = Module2."a"


    'or


    Sheet1.Shapes("MyShape").OnAction = Module2.a


    'fails

End Sub


How can specify the Module?


Thanks

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
The module name has to be part of the string:

Code:
"Module2.b"
