Remove all hyperlinks from an Excel worksheet without changing cell formatting

Hello,

Some time ago in another thread, expert (chris_bottomley) provided me with a VBA script to remove all hyperlinks from an Excel worksheet. The code is as follows:

Sub noHyper()
Dim lnk As Hyperlink
Dim addr As Range
Dim delText As Boolean 
    delText = MsgBox("Delete Cell Text as well as link?", vbYesNo, "Hyperlink Delete") = vbYes
    For Each lnk In ActiveSheet.Hyperlinks
        Set addr = ActiveSheet.Cells(lnk.Range.Row, lnk.Range.Column)
        lnk.Delete
        If delText Then addr = ""
    Next
End Sub

Select allOpen in new window

The code is great and does just as intended, i.e. removes every hyperlink in a worksheet in one step. However, I just noticed that it also removes all formatting for the cells which previously had hyperlinks.

Can someone provide a modification of the code so that all hyperlinks are removed but all formatting in the affected cells stays as it was?

Thanks
