On Error GoTo ... Resume Statement [Runtime]

Enables an error-handling routine after an error occurs, or resumes program execution.

Syntax:

On {Error GoTo Labelname | GoTo 0 | Resume Next}

Parameters:

GoTo Labelname: If an error occurs, enables the error-handling routine that starts at the line "Labelname".

Resume Next: If an error occurs, program execution continues with the statement that follows the statement in which the error occurred.

GoTo 0: Disables the error handler in the current procedure.

The On Error GoTo statement is used to react to errors that occur in a macro. The statement must be inserted at the start of a procedure (in a local error-handling routine) or at the start of a module.

Example:

Sub ExampleReset

On Error Goto ErrorHandler

Dim iNumber As Integer

Dim iCount As Integer

Dim sLine As String

Dim aFile As String

aFile = "c:\data.txt"

iNumber = Freefile

Open aFile For Output As #iNumber

Print #iNumber, "This is a line of text"

Close #iNumber

iNumber = Freefile

Open aFile For Input As iNumber

For iCount = 1 to 5

Line Input #iNumber, sLine

If sLine <>"" then

rem

end if

Next iCount

Close #iNumber

Exit Sub

ErrorHandler:

Reset

MsgBox "All files will be closed",0,"Error"

End Sub
