Vba Error Handling In Loop
Sign up On Error Resume Next seemingly not working up vote 3 down vote favorite I have the following two lines of code: On Error Resume Next myWorkbook.Sheets("x").Columns("D:T").AutoFit I've stepped into the macro and executed the line On Error Resume Next
On Error Goto Doesn't Work Second Time
and then on the next line myWorkbook... it does the following: Why doesn't the compiler resume the next line of code? On Error has been liberally used throughout the procedures code; I realize best practice is to use this as little as possible but it seems to fit the purpose of this macro. Reading this SO QUESTION it says that you can't have one set of error trapping within another. How can I guarantee that one set of error trapping has been excel vba on error resume "closed off" before the code moves on - does On Error Goto 0 reset the error trapping? If it does reset then why doesn't resume work in the following?: Sub GetAction() Dim WB As Workbook Set WB = ThisWorkbook On Error GoTo endbit: 'raise an error Err.Raise 69 Exit Sub endbit: On Error GoTo 0 On Error Resume Next WB.Sheets("x").Columns("D:T").AutoFit End Sub excel-vba share|improve this question edited Mar 17 '13 at 15:03 asked Mar 17 '13 at 9:37 whytheq 14.7k3486169 Can we pls see the full code? –brettdj Mar 17 '13 at 9:52 @brettdj all 500 lines! –whytheq Mar 17 '13 at 10:29 @brettdj do you think I need to make sure all other error trapping in the previous code is closed off? –whytheq Mar 17 '13 at 10:30 Yes :) I think you already have an error. –brettdj Mar 17 '13 at 10:31 @Remou - Re.your edit: isn't this error code common to all VBA implementations? –whytheq Mar 17 '13 at 12:30 | show 1 more comment 5 Answers 5 active oldest votes up vote 3 down vote accepted An example of an error when the initial error is not closed out.

The first three columns of this table have text headings, the rest of them have dates as headings. I want to assign those dates, sequentially, to a Date-type variable, and then perform some operations based on the date To do this I am using a foreach loop on myTable.ListColumns. Since the first three columns do not have date headers, I have tried http://stackoverflow.com/questions/11998836/excel-vba-on-error-goto-statement-not-working-inside-for-loop to set the loop up so that, if there is an error assigning the header string to the date-type variable, the loop goes straight to the next column This seems to work for the first column. However, when the second column's header is 'assigned' to the date-type variable, the macro encounters an error even though it is within an error-handling block Dim myCol As ListColumn For Each myCol In myTable.ListColumns On Error GoTo NextCol Dim myDate As Date myDate = CDate(myCol.Name) On Error GoTo 0 'MORE CODE HERE NextCol: On Error GoTo 0 Next myCol To reiterate, the error is thrown on the second round of the loop, at the statement myDate = CDate(myCol.Name) Can anyone explain why the On Error statement stops working? excel vba excel-vba for-loop error-handling share|improve this question asked Aug 17 '12 at 1:52 Swiftslide 41751828 Rather than using an error as your control structure, maybe an IF with an IsDate function would be more suitable in this scenario? –ray Aug 17 '12 at 2:29 1 If you are "blindly" handling the error - rather than taking specific action on an error type - then you should just use an On Error Resume Next outside your loop. At the moment you are using error handling afresh
