I have this code that I want to run that checks the days and times are within these parameters. I currently have it set when the sheet activates and when I click a shape button (Named: rStats)
When I click the button, it triggers a msgbox, which is to my expectation, however, when the sheet activates, the msgbox is triggered, which is not what I want.. I only want the msgbox to trigger if the shape is clicked.

VBA Code:
On Error Resume Next
If ActiveSheet.Shapes(Application.Caller).Name = "sStats" Then MsgBox "Stop"
On Error GoTo 0

If Weekday(Now()) = vbSunday Or Weekday(Now()) = vbSaturday Or _
    TimeValue(Now) < TimeValue("09:30:00 AM") - TimeSerial(2, 0, 0) Or _
        TimeValue(Now) > TimeValue("04:00:00 PM") - TimeSerial(2, 0, 0) Then Exit Sub
 
the code errors at If ActiveSheet.Shapes(Application.Caller).Name = "sStats" Then when activating the sheet

Excel Facts

Is there a shortcut key for strikethrough?
Ctrl+S is used for Save. Ctrl+5 is used for Strikethrough. Why Ctrl+5? When you use hashmarks to count |||| is 4, strike through to mean 5.
I suggest you assign a different Macro for your Shape click.
