FollowHyperlink Failure

I have a link in a spreadsheet in a cell, referring to itself and then this code:

Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_FollowHyperlink(ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
    
        MsgBox "test"
        
End Sub

Yet when I click the link I never see the test. I check to make sure events are enabled and they are. What's up? Any ideas?

UPDATE:
Used this instead, and worked. Still weird:

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_SheetFollowHyperlink(ByVal Sh As Object, ByVal Target As Hyperlink)
MsgBox "test"
End Sub

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
Your 1st code works for me, did you have it in the correct sheet module?
