You are calling the function somewhere not by a guictrlsetonevent() trigger, as there is no control involved @GUI_CtrlId is not defined...

Replying specifically because I keep on making the same mistake and each time I have to search the net LOL

Instead of writing :

GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1,"_My_Hyperlink") ; <<-- Proper code

I'd write :

GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1,_My_Hyperlink()) ; BAD, even without the empty parenthesis it won't work 

You also want to add 

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

somewhere at the top of your program. 

Once that's done, make sure you call your hyperlink like this :

ShellExecute(GUICtrlRead(@GUI_CtrlId))

This assumes whatever text you have in your label is a valid internet ressource

Great... and all of this was worth waiting for those 13 years! 🫤

I DID SAY it was mostly for myself

... then there is no need to bother us with it... is there? 

So please buy yourself a notepad and stop resurrecting old threads unnecessarily.  Thanks
