A good article is the one https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/5hsw66as.aspx of CPearson.com However I'm still wondering if the way I used to do ErrorHandling was/is completely wrong: Block 1 On Error Goto ErrCatcher If UBound(.sortedDates) > 0 Then // Code Else ErrCatcher: // Code End If The if clause, because if it is true, it will be executed and if it fails the Goto will go into the Else-part, since the Ubound of an Array should never be zero or less, without an Error, this method worked quite well so far. If http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6028288/properly-handling-errors-in-vba-excel I understood it right it should be like this: Block 2 On Error Goto ErrCatcher If Ubound(.sortedDates) > 0 Then // Code End If Goto hereX ErrCatcher: //Code Resume / Resume Next / Resume hereX hereX: Or even like this: Block 3 On Error Goto ErrCatcher If Ubound(.sortedDates) > 0 Then // Code End If ErrCatcher: If Err.Number <> 0 then //Code End If The most common way I see is that one, that the Error "Catcher" is at the end of a sub and the Sub actually ends before with a "Exit Sub", but however isn't it a little confusing if the Sub is quite big if you jump vice versa to read through the code? Block 4 Source of the following Code: CPearson.com On Error Goto ErrHandler: N = 1 / 0 ' cause an error ' ' more code ' Exit Sub ErrHandler: ' error handling code' Resume Next End Sub Should it be like in Block 3 ? Thank you for reading my question Greetings skofgar excel vba share|improve this question edited Jun 28 '14 at 13:37 asked May 17 '11 at 8:38 skofgar 6842816 7 rather than risk throwing an error with If Ubound(.sortedDates)>0 use If IsArrayAllocated(.sortedDates) = TRUE –osknows May 17 '11 at 8:53 Wow! that was fast :-) - thank you, that makes the On Error Goto unnecessary here... –skofgar May 17 '11 at 8:56 But if it wasn't an array check..
execution at a specified line upon hitting an error. Situation: Both programs calculate the square root of numbers. Square Root 1 Add the following code lines to the 'Square Root 1' command button. http://www.excel-easy.com/vba/examples/error-handling.html 1. First, we declare two Range objects. We call the Range objects rng and cell. Dim rng As Range, cell As Range 2. We initialize the Range object rng with the selected range. Set rng = Selection 3. We want to calculate the square root of each cell in a randomly selected range (this range can be of any size). In Excel VBA, you can use the For Each Next loop error handling for this. Add the following code lines: For Each cell In rng Next cell Note: rng and cell are randomly chosen here, you can use any names. Remember to refer to these names in the rest of your code. 4. Add the following code line to the loop. On Error Resume Next 5. Next, we calculate the square root of a value. In Excel VBA, we can use the Sqr function for error handling in this. Add the following code line to the loop. cell.Value = Sqr(cell.Value) 6. Exit the Visual Basic Editor and test the program. Result: Conclusion: Excel VBA has ignored cells containing invalid values such as negative numbers and text. Without using the 'On Error Resume Next' statement you would get two errors. Be careful to only use the 'On Error Resume Next' statement when you are sure ignoring errors is OK. Square Root 2 Add the following code lines to the 'Square Root 2' command button. 1. The same program as Square Root 1 but replace 'On Error Resume Next' with: On Error GoTo InvalidValue: Note: InvalidValue is randomly chosen here, you can use any name. Remember to refer to this name in the rest of your code. 2. Outside the For Each Next loop, first add the following code line: Exit Sub Without this line, the rest of the code (error code) will be executed, even if there is no error! 3. Excel VBA continues execution at the line starting with 'InvalidValue:' upon hitting an error (don't forget the colon). Add the following code line: InvalidValue: 4. We keep our error code simple for now. We display a MsgBox with some text and the address of the cell where the error occurred. MsgBox "c
