Here's a way to add a shape during run time and assign a hyperlink to another sheet.
Sub AddShapeLink()
Dim strSheet As String
Dim wks As Worksheet
strSheet = "Sheet1" 'You can give the name of your map sheet here
Set wks = Worksheets(strSheet)
wks.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeRectangle, 20, 20, 20, 10).Name = Sheets.Count + 1 'Adding a new shape and giving it a name. One can give any name (assuming it doesn't exist in the sheet already)
Sheets.Add(After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)).Name = Sheets.Count + 1 'We are adding a new sheet here, but one can use an existing sheet too
wks.Hyperlinks.Add wks.Shapes("" & Sheets.Count & ""), "", "'" & Sheets(Sheets.Count).Name & "'!A1" 'The hyperlink given to the sheet range A1
Set wks = Nothing
strSheet = vbNullString
End Sub
Sub AddShapeLink()
Dim strSheet As String
Dim wks As Worksheet
strSheet = "Sheet1" 'You can give the name of your map sheet here
Set wks = Worksheets(strSheet)
wks.Shapes.AddShape(msoShapeRectangle, 20, 20, 20, 10).Name = Sheets.Count + 1 'Adding a new shape and giving it a name. One can give any name (assuming it doesn't exist in the sheet already)
Sheets.Add(After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)).Name = Sheets.Count + 1 'We are adding a new sheet here, but one can use an existing sheet too
wks.Hyperlinks.Add wks.Shapes("" & Sheets.Count & ""), "", "'" & Sheets(Sheets.Count).Name & "'!A1" 'The hyperlink given to the sheet range A1
Set wks = Nothing
strSheet = vbNullString
End Sub
