divide by zero. The example code in this article will use the division by zero error (Error 11) when we want to deliberately raise an error. Your application should make as many checks as possible during https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/5hsw66as.aspx initialization to ensure that run time errors do not occur later. In Excel, this includes ensuring that required workbooks and worksheets are present and that required names are defined. The more checking you do before the real work of your application begins, the more stable your application will be. It is far better to detect potential error situations when your application starts up before data is change than to wait until later to http://www.cpearson.com/excel/errorhandling.htm encounter an error situation. If you have no error handling code and a run time error occurs, VBA will display its standard run time error dialog box. While this may be acceptable, even desirable, in a development environment, it is not acceptable to the end user in a production environment. The goal of well designed error handling code is to anticipate potential errors, and correct them at run time or to terminate code execution in a controlled, graceful method. Your goal should be to prevent unhandled errors from arising. A note on terminology: Throughout this article, the term procedure should be taken to mean a Sub, Function, or Property procedure, and the term exit statement should be taken to mean Exit Sub, Exit Function, or Exit Property. The term end statement should be taken to mean End Sub , End Function, End Property, or just End. The On Error Statement The heart of error handling in VBA is the On Error statement. This statement instructs VBA what to do when an run time error is encountered. The On Error statement takes three forms. On Error Goto 0 On Error Resume Next On Error Goto

Be very cautious using it. –Nate Feb 4 '10 on error goto at 20:22 2 It makes more sense now. After some functions that can end up in error. They have a function called checkError after them. –Omar Feb 4 '10 at 20:37 add a comment| 6 Answers 6 active oldest votes up vote 56 down vote accepted It basically tells the program when you encounter an error just continue at the next line. share|improve this answer answered Feb 4 '10 at 20:19 David 2,2601523 add a comment| Did you find this question interesting?

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. 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 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 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 "can't calculate square root at cell " & cell.Address 5. Add the following line to instruct Excel VBA to resume execution after executing the error code. Resume Next 6. Exit the Visual Basic Editor and test the program.
