down vote favorite 5 As usual, I create an error-handler using On Error Goto statement, there I put a few lines of cleaning codes and display the error message, but now I don't want to lose the comfortableness of the default handler which also point me to the exact line where the error has occured. How can I do that?

This code does what you want (please note the "line numbers") Sub a() 10: On Error GoTo ErrorHandler 20: DivisionByZero = 1 / 0 30: Exit Sub ErrorHandler: 41: If Err.Number <> 0 Then 42: Msg = "Error # " & Str(Err.Number) & " was generated by " _ & Err.Source & Chr(13) & "Error Line: " & Erl & Chr(13) & Err.Description 43: MsgBox Msg, , "Error", Err.HelpFile, Err.HelpContext 44: End If 50: Resume Next 60: End Sub When it runs, the expected MsgBox is shown: And now the bad news: Line numbers are a residue of old versions of Basic. The programming environment usually took charge of inserting and updating them. In VBA and other "modern" versions, this functionality is lost. However, Here there are several alternatives for "automatically" add line numbers, saving you the tedious task of typing them ... but all of them seem more or less cumbersome ... or commercial. HTH! share|improve this answer edited Oct 12 '10 at 13:27 answered Oct 12 '10 at 13:13 Dr. belisariu

error message to an Excel Spreadsheet In the previous part, you saw how to add drop down lists to your Excel spreadsheets. In this part, we'll display an error message for our users. If you haven't already done so, you need to do the previous tutorial first. Data Validation - restricting what data can go in a cell You can also restrict what goes in to a cell on your spreadsheet, and display an error message for your users. We'll do this with our Comments column. If users enter too much text, we'll let them know by displaying a suitable error box. Try the following: Highlight the E column on your spreadsheet (the Comments column) From the Data Tools panel, click Data Validation to bring up the dialogue box again From the Allow list, select Text length: When you select Text Length from the list, you'll see three new areas appear: What we're trying to do is to restrict the amount of text a user can input into any one cell on the Comments column.

For the maximum box, type 25. Your dialogue box should then look like this: To add an error message, click the Error Alert tab at the top of the Data Validation dialogue box: Make sure there is a tick in the box for "Show error alert after invalid data is entered". You have three different Styles to choose from for your error message. Click the drop down list to see them: In the Title textbox, type some text for the title of your error message. Now click inside the error message field and type some text for the main body of your error message.
