Deleting shapes/objects from a preselected area
Is there a way to delete shapes/objects from a preselected area? I am trying
to use the following macro, but it takes a long time. It also has the problem as you can't tell which object is selected when the dialog box is open. Tim Sub delete_objects_in_an_area() Dim shp As Shape For Each shp In ActiveSheet.Shapes shp.Select 'can't determine which shape is selected 'ActiveSheet.activeShape.Select 'need to select shape first so I know whether to delete or not response = MsgBox("Delete shape?", vbYesNoCancel + vbCritical + vbDefaultButton2) If response = vbYes Then shp.Delete ElseIf response = vbCancel Then Exit Sub End If Next end sub |
