let a sub recognise the name of the button that has been clicked.
 

Here's the problem,
I have a map of my classroom as a picture on a worksheet. I have the
pupils in the class represented by shapes, with a macro assigned that
loads a userform containg a textbox.
Each button has its name property set to so it matches the pupil's own
name.

I need to click each button, have the userform load and then set the
textbox's value to the name of the pupil that was clicked.

My question is:
Is it possible to have a sub recognise the Name of the button that was
clicked to run the sub?

Cheers in advance.
