If you right click on the shape and select assign macro from the popup menu,
the macro will fire when the shape is clicked.

Okay, I am trying to convert a bunch of data into a bunch of images. I
decided to use rectangles, because.. well, because that's what the data
represents.

Imagine a jigsaw puzzle, (but all just solid rectangles of different
sizes).

So, my code works pretty well. It draws approximately 4000 rectangles
on the screen in various locations, colors, and whatnot. They do not
overlap, and they do not leave any 'white space'.

Is there a way I can assign some text, or other information, to each
rectangle?


Maybe there is someway I can still use that same built-in text block
within the shape, but when I click on a shape, the text goes into the
status bar, or a popup, or a 'callout'?

I think I can figure out how to add the desired text into the shape.
But...

Can anyone offer some direction on how I can take that text out? Based
on a mouseover, or a click, or arrow keys?

TIA,
DougB
