Excel Vba Vlookup In Another Worksheet
when no match found up vote 4 down vote favorite In my program, the user types a Zip Code and gets as an output information related to the Zip Code (province, city, district). To do this, I use the Vlookup function. So, the user : Types a Zip code in the main sheet The program search in a database (in another sheet) in which Zip Code are associated excel vba vlookup object required to City, Province, District. When there is a match, it sends the result to the main pages, so the user can get a city, province, district just by typing the Zip Code. Quite simple process. I use this code to do so : If Range("J9").Value <> "N/A" Then 'if there is actually a zip code entered by the user (if not, it will be "N/A") cityZip = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(sMain.Range("J9").Value, sZipCodes.Range("B2:E864"), 3, False) barangayZip = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(sMain.Range("J9").Value, sZipCodes.Range("B2:E864"), 2, False) provinceZip = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(sMain.Range("J9").Value, sZipCodes.Range("B2:E864"), 4, False) sMain.Range("J7").Value = provinceZip sMain.Range("J13").Value = cityZip sMain.Range("J16").Value = barangayZip Else End If It works perfectly when there is a Zip Code which is in my database. But if not, it crashes the execution of the program and I have an error message (like "execution error '1004', unable to read the Vlookup ...). How to modify my code to just say that if there is no match, then it should just do nothing? I don't know how to introduce this request in a Vlookup function. Thanks in advance ! EDIT : here is my new code, after following Tim Williams suggestion : 'Using Zip Code If Range("J9").Value <> "N/A" Then provinceZip = Application.Lookup(sMain.Range("J9").Value, sZipCodes.Range("B2:E907"), 4, False) If IsError(provinc

to call worksheet functions from VBA code. Introduction Because VBA is used by many applications beyond Excel, the Excel worksheet functions are not part of the VBA language itself. However, you can call worksheet functions directly through the Application object or through the Application.WorksheetFunctions class. The difference between using or omitting the WorksheetFunctions reference is how errors are handled. This is discussed below. Calling Worksheet Functions In VBA Nearly all worksheet functions can be called from VBA using the Application or Application.Worksheet objects. Excel functions that have native VBA equivalents, such as Month, are not available. The syntax of a worksheet function call is the same as worksheet function itself. For example, a worksheet function in a cell might be: =VLOOKUP(123,A1:C100,3,FALSE) To use code in VBA that does the same thing, you would use: Dim Res As Variant Res = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(123,Range("A1:C100"),3,FALSE) The number of parameters and their meanings are the same when calling the function from VBA as they are when calling the function from a worksheet cell. As the code above is written, you will get a runtime error if the value 123 is not found in the range. Therefore, you need to put in some error trapping code: Dim Res As Variant On Error Resume Next Err.Clear Res = Application.WorksheetFunction.VLookup(123,Range("A1:C100"),3,FALSE) If Err.Number = 0 Then '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ' Value was found. Continue normal code execution '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' Else '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ' Value was not found. Error code goes here. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' End If Error Handling With Worksheet Functions This brings us to the topic of error handling when calling worksheet functions in
