To add a hyperlink in a ListView control when an item is clicked, you can handle the ListView’s ItemClick event and use the ShellExecute function from the Windows API to open the hyperlink in a web browser. Here’s an example code that demonstrates this in VBA:
Option Explicit Private Declare PtrSafe Function ShellExecute Lib "shell32.dll" Alias "ShellExecuteA" (ByVal hwnd As LongPtr, ByVal lpOperation As String, ByVal lpFile As String, ByVal lpParameters As String, ByVal lpDirectory As String, ByVal nShowCmd As Long) As LongPtr Private Sub ListView1_ItemClick(ByVal Item As MSComctlLib.ListItem) Dim hyperlink As String Dim result As LongPtr ' Replace "ColumnIndex" with the actual index of the column containing the hyperlink in your ListView hyperlink = Item.SubItems(ColumnIndex).Text ' Open the hyperlink in the default web browser result = ShellExecute(0, "open", hyperlink, vbNullString, vbNullString, 1) End Sub
In the above code, replace “ColumnIndex” with the actual index of the column containing the hyperlink in your ListView. The ItemClick event is triggered when an item is clicked in the ListView, and it retrieves the text of the specified column for the clicked item, which represents the hyperlink. The ShellExecute function is then used to open the hyperlink in the default web browser.
Please note that this code assumes you have added a reference to the “Microsoft Windows Common Controls” library (usually named “Microsoft Windows Common Controls x.x” or “MSCOMCTL.OCX”) in your VBA project.
Make sure to adjust the ListView control’s name (ListView1) and the column index (ColumnIndex) based on your specific implementation.
