Parent elements
Child elements
The Name , NameU , and ID elements are optional; however, at least one is required for each Hyperlink element.
The Hyperlink element is relevant only when contained in a DocumentSheet , PageSheet , or Shape element. It is ignored when contained in a StyleSheet element.
Example
In the following example, the Address element contains the URL for the Visio section of the Microsoft Office Developer Center on MSDN. Because a shape can have multiple hyperlinks, the ID attribute is used to indicate which hyperlink belongs to this URL.
