Answer 1

OK, here is a Macro that I wrote in Excel 2007 that works:

Sub Macro3()
    Dim NewSheet As Worksheet, oldws As Worksheet
    Set oldws = ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet

    Dim i As Integer, obj As Shape
    Dim picFmt As PictureFormat

    Set NewSheet = Worksheets.Add
    NewSheet.Range("A1").Value = oldws.Name
    i = 3
    NewSheet.Range("A2").Value = "Name"
    NewSheet.Range("B2").Value = "Link Type"
    For Each obj In oldws.Shapes
        NewSheet.Cells(i, 1).Value = obj.Name
        NewSheet.Cells(i, 2) = obj.Type
        Set picFmt = obj.PictureFormat
        With picFmt
            NewSheet.Cells(i, 3) = .TransparencyColor
            'set Black as the Transparent color'
            .TransparencyColor = RGB(0, 0, 0)
        End With
        i = i + 1
    Next
End Sub
