With Shapes from the Drawing toolbar, eg a Textbox, and controls from the
Forms Toolbar you can do this, (also refer to my previous example)

sCaller = Application.Caller

this returns the name of the Shape, eg "Text Box 1"

This is an object (Box with Text) with an assigned macro

Thanks

Define what you mean by a "hot spot in the spreadsheet", eg cell (select

or
double click), a Forms or ActiveX control.

I mean a hot spot in the spreadsheet itself not on the tool bar, would
your
proposal work the same?

By 'hot button' I assume you mean a button on a toolbar that you

have
added,
manually or programmatically, and assigned it to a macro

Assign your buttons to your Macro

Sub myMacro
Dim sCaller as string

sCaller = Commandbars.ActionControl.Caption
' sCaller = Commandbars.ActionControl.Tag
' sCaller = Commandbars.ActionControl.Parameter

Select Case sCaller
Case "hot but #1"
'etc

If you programmatically added the buttons you could assign the Tag
and/or
Parameter properties.

It's probably better not to use Goto within a select case, lots of

other
ways.

What are the detail commands to execute a sub routine within same
module
based on one selection from a list of hot bottons.
I imagine something like...

if <<hot bottom #1 selected go to line #XX
