See this Example. You can trap the Error Number using Err.Number Sub Sample() On Error GoTo Whoa '~~> Rest of the code Exit Sub Whoa: Select Case Err.Number Case 9 MsgBox "Message1" Case 1004 MsgBox "Message2" End Select End Sub FOLLOWUP Sub Sample1() On Error GoTo Whoa '~~> Rest of the code Exit Sub Whoa: MsgBox GetErrMsg(Err.Number) End Sub Sub Sample2() On Error GoTo Whoa '~~> Rest of the code Exit Sub Whoa: MsgBox GetErrMsg(Err.Number) End Sub Function GetErrMsg(ErNo As Long) As String Select Case ErNo Case 9 GetErrMsg = "Message1" Case 1004 GetErrMsg = "Message2" Case Else GetErrMsg = "Message3" End Select End Function share|improve this answer edited Jul 16 '12 at 15:18 answered Jul 16 '12 at 14:25 Siddharth Rout 91.1k11102146 Sweet and simple, the best type of code, thanks :) Just one question, does this have to go into each section, or can this be created as it's own module? –Matt Ridge Jul 16 '12 at 14:47 It has to go into each section.

I was wondering if it was possible to create an error message when a macro that i wrote in VBA encounters problems. I have quite an extensive piece of software (and ive learnt vba as i go along). But there are certain operations that are caused by a user inputting the wrong data meaning the macro doesnt work. What appears is a horrible debug message and i was wondering whether its possible to create a helpful and user friendly error message to explain to the user what they most likely ahve done wrong? Any experts there know how to help with this one? Id really appreciate the feedback Paul Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter Reply With Quote May 12th, 2008,03:01 AM #2 HaHoBe Board Regular Join Date Jan 2003 Location Hamburg, Germany Posts 314 Re: Creating Error Message with VBA Hi. Paul, maybe use On Error Goto err_handle and explain things to your user there: Code: On Error Goto err_handle 'code goes here err_handle: MsgBox Error number " & Err.Number & " occurred:" & vbCrLf & "Description: " & Err.Description, vbInformation 'Continue either by Resume, Resume Next or Resume GoTo Code: Sub paul() Dim lngCounter As Long Dim lngErr As Long On Error GoTo err_here For lngCounter = 1 To 10 If lngCounter = 1 Then lngErr = 66541 Err.Raise 9 End If If lngCounter = 2 Then lngErr = 66542 Err.Raise 9 End If Next lngCounter err_here: Select Case lngErr Case 66541 MsgBox "first encounter" Err.Clear Resume Next Case 66542 MsgBox "second encounter" Err.Clear Case Else MsgBox Err.Number & vbCrLf & Err.Description Exit Sub End Select End Sub Ciao, Holger Share Share this post on Digg Del.icio.us Technorati Twitter Reply With Quote « Previous Thread | Next Thread » Like this thread?
