On Error Statement Enables or disables error-handling.Syntax Copy On Error https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/53f3k80h(v=vs.84).aspx Resume Next On Error GoTo 0 RemarksIf you don't use an On Error Resume Next statement anywhere in your code, any run-time error that occurs can cause an error message to be displayed and code execution stopped. However, the host running the code determines the exact behavior. The host can sometimes opt to handle such errors differently. In some cases, the script debugger may be invoked at the point of the error. In still other cases, there may be no apparent indication that any error occurred because the host does not need to notify the user. Again, this is purely a function of how the host handles any errors that occur.Within any particular procedure, an error is not necessarily fatal as long as error-handling is enabled somewhere along the call stack. If local error-handling is not enabled in a procedure and an error occurs, control is passed back through the call stack until a procedure with error-handling enabled is found and the error is handled at that point. If no procedure in the call stack is found to have error-handling enabled, an error message is displayed at that point and execution stops or the host handles the error as appropriate.On Error Resume Next causes execution to con
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 http://www.cpearson.com/excel/errorhandling.htm positive number is acceptable; and run time errors, that occur when VBA cannot http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6028288/properly-handling-errors-in-vba-excel 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 on error 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 on error goto 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 error handling in VBA is the On Error statement. This statement instructs VBA what to do when an run

A good article is the one 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 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 ?

I think my question is answered like this - there's no way to vote up your comment is there?, because it's a really good one :-) –skofgar May 17 '11 at 9:03 add a
