I've tried google and msdn, but I've had no luck. excel vba msdn share|improve this question asked Jan 4 '13 at 14:22 sterlingalston 155116 This documentation is for Visual Basic, not VBA, but the concepts are similar enough in this case that it should explain the difference. –vcsjones Jan 4 '13 at 14:30 add a comment| 4 Answers 4 active oldest votes up vote 33 down vote accepted On Error GoTo 0 disables any error trapping currently present in the procedure. On Error GoTo -1 clears the error handling and sets it to nothing which allows you to create another error trap. Example: On Error GoTo -1 After the first error is raised, it will GoTo ErrorFound which will then clear the routine's error handling and set a new one, which will GoTo AnotherErrorFound when an error is found. Sub OnErrorGotoMinusOneTest() On Error GoTo ErrorFound Err.Raise Number:=9999, Description:="Forced Error" Exit Sub ErrorFound: On Error GoTo -1 'Clear the current error handling On Error GoTo AnotherErrorFound 'Set a new one Err.Raise Number:=10000, Description:="Another Forced Error" AnotherErrorFound: 'Code here End Sub Example: On Error GoTo 0 After the first error is raised, you will receive the error as error handling has been disabled.

Syntax On Error GoTo line On Error Resume Next On Error GoTo 0 The On Error statement syntax can have any of the following forms: Statement Description On Error GoTo line Enables the error-handling routine that starts at line specified in the required line argument. The line argument is any line label or line number. If a run-time error occurs, control branches to line, making the error handler active. The specified line must be in the same procedure as the On Error statement; otherwise, a compile-time error occurs. On Error Resume Next Specifies that when a run-time error occurs, control goes to the statement immediately following the statement where the error occurred where execution continues. Use this form rather than On Error GoTo when accessing objects. On Error GoTo 0 Disables any enabled error handler in the current procedure. Remarks If you don't use an On Error statement, any run-time error that occurs is f

I frequently see this statement; however, I don't know what it does. Other times I see "On Error GoTo ErrLine" which I can follow. Can someone tell me where is the "0" or where does the statement take me? Thanks.

UK Posts 6,334 Re: On Error GoTo 0 'On Error GoTo on error goto 0' turns off error trapping. ie if a statement fails following that the error routine is not called and your program will abort.

That is the exact opposite of what I need to do. If an "INSERT" statement fails, I would like to display a message box showing certain field values to help the user figure out what parameter table entry is wrong. Here is a sample statement that I think is the usual culprit: HTML Code: dbAR.Execute "INSERT INTO Distribution(" & dFlds & ") VALUES(" & _ arRS!ID & ",'" & rs!ref & "'," & pRs!memberID & ",'" & _ d & "',#" & d & "#,0,'Payment-'" & pRs!pmtDesc & "',6," & _ rs!amt & ",0," & rcd & ",'" & dpt & "'," & comp & ")", _ dbFailOnError dbAR.Execute "INSERT INTO Transaction(" & tFlds & ") VALUES('" & _ rs!ref & "'," & pRs!memberID & ",'" & d & "',#" & d & _ "#,0,'Payment-'" & pRs!pmtDesc & "',6," & rs!amt & ",0," & _ arRS!ID & ",'1'," & rcd & ",'" & dpt & "'," & comp & _ "," & rs!fbID & ")", dbFailOnError dbAR.Execute "UPDATE Transaction SET tID=ID WHERE Val(tID)<>ID", dbFailOnError I see where i
three flavors: compiler errors such as undeclared variables that prevent your code from compiling; user data entry error such as a user entering a negative value where only a positive number is acceptable; and run time errors, that occur when VBA cannot correctly execute a program statement. We will concern ourselves here only with run time errors. Typical run time errors include attempting to access a non-existent worksheet or workbook, or attempting to 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 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 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 erro
