Modules & VBA :: Error Handling (label Not Defined)
Jan 12, 2014
I am studying error handling. I am using VBA Developers Hand Book and some Google stuff. I have been over the material several times and cannot find my mistake. When I click cmdFindState it give me "compile error" " label not defined",and stops at:
Code:
"On Error GoTo Err_cmdFindState_Click"
Code:
Private Sub cmdFindState_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdFindState_Click
DoCmd.OpenForm "frmChurchesAll"
DoCmd.ApplyFilter "qryFindState"
'-----------------------------------------
' 51 Vermont
'------------------------------------------
DoCmd.GoToControl "ComboState"
I copied some VBA from one database to another. I didn't change anything and I am able to run it fine in the first database. But in the DB I pasted it to, I am received a Compile Error message with the XlApp As Excel.Application area highlighted.
Function OpenAutoCount() Dim xlApp As Excel.Application Dim xlWB As Excel.Workbook
hi, I am new to this forum and to MS Acess. i am not a software engineer or in the field of software. I had to learn as much as i could about MS Acess because of a project i worked on. I have a standalone MSacess database and one of the forms is giving me trouble when I try to enter a new record
The form is called frm_fragrances and has information about a fragrance. the frm_fragrances has 4 fields in it and a sub form. the sub form has details about the fragrance
In a new record when I enter the 4 fields and attemt to go to the subform which has details about this fragrance I face this error.
an unexpected error haas occurred @2465: application defined or object defined error.
additional information Active form:<frm_fragrances> Active control:<txt_VendorName> Previous control:<frm_fragrances>@Please call the developer for further instructions
I have looked in the FAQ and on this forum for help on error 2465 and cannot find anything to help me. I can work with forms to an extent but cannot write too much code.
I would really appreciate some help in this matter Thank you
I've got a problem with a loop for producing worksheets (reports). When everything works there's no problem but when one of the reports namely rptChemoOralWorksheet doesn't have data available to produce the report the loop finishes and then all remaining worksheets don't print.I've put in a standard error handler with MsgBox, but it's never triggered. I've also tried
Code: On Error Resume Next
but again rather than skip the DoCmd.OpenReport "rptChemoOralWorksheet" (when the error is present) and move to the next one to continue printing through the list the loop stops and the subsequent code starts to run.
Code: Dim mydatabase As DAO.Database Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Set mydatabase = CurrentDb Set rst = mydatabase.OpenRecordset("atblChemoWSLoop", dbOpenDynaset) Dim rsBN As String Dim rsDose As Double
I am setting up a form to send multiple attachments to an email.I have a query "qry_DwgEmail" that has an ID and a path column. On the form I have a button with the code below in the Click Event.The code below all works fine unless the path is incorrect, so I would like some error handling to be able to either:
1) Stop the code from running and display a message box with my message. 2) Continue the loop and then have the message box display what files could not be found (Preferred).
Note, the following code was taken from one of the forums I am not 100% on what it all means.
Code: Private Sub btn_CreateEmail_Click() Dim MyDB As Database Dim MyRS As Recordset Dim objOutlook As Outlook.Application Dim objOutlookMsg As Outlook.MailItem Dim objOutlookAttach As Outlook.Attachment Dim TheAttachment As String
I have a table onto which i would like to add new column based on a set of if statements. (to assign weekly dates)this is only a portion of the code, but when I clicked on run, it gives me "external name not defined error".
Code:
Option Compare Database Option Explicit Public Sub AssignWeekly() 'declares weekly column as a new variable Dim Client_Weekly_1213 As Integer
The problem is lately; while testing I am running multiple queries in a routine. When it fails; its hard to identify which query has the problem. So I hit control break; debug and try to find it. After I fix it; I debug and reset; i get this continuing hourglass thing in the form of a spinning circle until I close and reopen the database. I think I need better error handling but not something really complicated because I need to put it in quite a few routines throughout the database.
Select Case Err.Number Case 9999 ' Whatever number you anticipate. Resume Next ' Use this to just ignore the line. Case 999 Resume Exit_SomeName ' Use this to give up on the proc. Case Else ' Any unexpected error. Call LogError(Err.Number, Err.Description, "SomeName()") Resume Exit_SomeName End Select
And the error came out, Label Not Defined. I've checked with "help", and it stated that
"The label must be within the procedure that contains the reference. Line labels are visible only in their own procedures"
Is there any missing references in the library I should checked??
On Compiling my assecc database VB code I get the following error message "User defined type not defined". I understand it is beecause I have not declared the Variable Type, but have no idea to exactly which part of the code the error is referring to.
How do I find out WHICH User defined type is not defined, especially when I have not got any (or do not want to use any) user defined types?
Thank you in advanced programming wizards. Kind regards, Adam.
Hello, I have the following code and i don`t know what's wrong Private Sub cmdCautare_Click() Dim strSQL As String, strOrder As String, strWhere As String 'Dim dbNm As Database 'Dim qryDef As QueryDef 'Set dbNm = CurrentDb() strSQL = "SELECT DOSARE.DosarID,DOSARE.DenumireDosar,DOSARE.CodDosa r,DOSARE.DataDosar,DOSARE.Denumire,DOSARE.Data,DOS ARE.Stadiu FROM DOSARE" strWhere = "WHERE" strOrder = "ORDER BY DOSARE.DosarID " If Not IsNull(Me.txtDenumire) Then strWhere = strWhere & "(DOSARE.DenumireDosar) Like '*" & Me.txtDenumire & "*' AND" ' " End If If Not IsNull(Me.cmbStadiu) Then strWhere = strWhere & " (DOSARE.Stadiu) Like '*" & Me.cmbStadiu & "*'" End If DoCmd.Close acForm, "frmPrincipal" DoCmd.OpenForm "frmRezultateCautare", acNormal Forms!frmRezultateCautare.RowSource = strSQL & " " & strWhere & "" & strOrder End Sub Here: Forms!frmRezultateCautare.RowSource = strSQL & " " & strWhere & "" & strOrder The error is the following "Application-defined or object-defined error"
I have used the following script to export a subform to excel but it isn't working for a report.
The report name is spelled correctly etc... but the error message keeps saying error 2465 or if I enable the error handler it says application defined or object defined error.
I don't want to have to export the data to a table first, but if I have to then I guess I will have to.
Code: Sub fFunctionNameExportExcel(ctrl As IRibbonControl) 'print to excel Dim rst As DAO.Recordset Dim ApXL As Object Dim xlWBk As Object Dim xlWSh As Object Dim fld As DAO.Field Const xlCenter As Long = -4108
I have recently upsized an Access database to SQL Server. The .adp is for the most part working fine.
However, when an end user tries to create a duplicate record in one of the Primary key columns of a Form he gets a SQL Server error message as follows:
"Violation of Primary Key constraint. Cannot insert duplicate key in object myTable".
This is obviously not a very useful error message. What would be the best way to ensure that a more useful error message is returned?
I have considered adding code to the "After_Update" event of the cell in question. This however seems long winded. Is there an easier option?
The following code only half works. I want to stop an ugly error occuring when primary keys are duplicated. In the following code the error handler picks up and displays a simple message when a user attempts to add duplicate values. BUT if the users adds a record, the record is successfully added followed with the same error message. I think I've put the error handler in the wrong place, but I can't figure out where it should go. Any ideas are much appreciated.

Is it enough for error handling to code the on error property for each form? With enough I mean error handling which lets you resume the program.
Ontherwise I have to code (or call a procedure) for each coded event which i wouldn't prefer
For instance now I'm putting error handling in each event but would consider it more efficient if it can be placed once in each form Private Sub cmdReport_Click() On Error GoTo Err_cmdReport_Click
I currently have a macro that sets the value of several fields on a "lost focus " event; however there is an error that I would like access to ignore, is there any way to have this macro process this function "On Error Resume Next" ?
On a form i have a textbox to enter a date and multiple command buttons to open other forms. After entering a date value, followed by either a tab or clicking on one of the command buttons, i want to validate the entered date value. If the date is invalid i want to display an error message and the cursor positioned on the textbox field.
The LostFocus event of the textbox is as follows:
Private Sub txtDateField_LostFocus() If Not IsDate(txtDateField.Value) Then MsgBox "Date invalid." txtDateField.SetFocus End If End Sub
If entering an invalid date is followed by a tab, the error is displayed but the cursor is not positioned on the textbox field. If entering an invalid date is followed by clicking on one of the command buttons, the error is displayed but the expected form is opened. How to position the cursor appropriate and how to prevent opening the form?

How do you do an Access/VBE split screen? I want to be able to watch the code execute as I enter data into the form.
I have redesigned a database, essentially building a new one from scratch. I have all of the forms created and they are working beautifully. :) Now, I'm error-handling to create user-friendly messages. I have a superb Access programming book, but it only briefly mentions error handling and doesn't describe at all how to do it. Most of my forms are pretty simple, and I've been able to complete all of the error-handling tasks using the Form Error event as well as coding other events with the error message number. However, the main form is complex and includes a function in a standard code module and a custom sub routine.
I'm not usre how to handle the error when cancelling a report. so when I hit a control to bring up a report and say I cancel it before I put in any parameters for example I get the dialog box " runtime error" "OpenReport action was cancelled" etc.
Could anyone help me on how to handle this with VBA so that it's at least a more user friendly dialog box?
I'm trying to split out the first name from a GivenNames field which contains first and middle names. Some values in the GivenNames field have just a first name. I've tried the below formula, but still get some #Error responses where only a first name exists in the field.
My formula: Given Name: IIf(IsError(Left([GivenNames],InStr([GivenNames]," ")-1)),[GivenNames],Left([GivenNames],InStr([GivenNames]," ")-1))
My tables are sybase linked tables to my Access front end. I get this error whenever i click away from my mainform while my not-null fields (textboxes) have not been entered. So, i would like to put an error message "somewhere" that tells the user to fill in the necessary fields and highlight the necessary textboxes in red, instead of this scary ODBC message http://img82.imageshack.us/img82/6829/error0el.png :eek: :eek:
When i put my error handling in the afterUpdate or afterInsert Event. I still get the above error msg instead of my msgbox. Where do i put this message? or should be question be, "what the proper way to handle this intimidating error? :)
Here's my error handling:
On Error GoTo Err_Form_AfterInsert
'do something
Exit_Form_AfterInsert: Exit Sub
Err_Form_AfterInsert: MsgBox Err.Description, vbExclamation, "Please enter the Project Name, Project Leader Initials, Main User and Status Code" & Err.Number Me!Combo67.BackColor = "red" Me!Combo65.BackColor = "red" Me![Project Name].BackColor = "red" Me![Project Leader Initials Combo].BackColor = "red" Resume Exit_Form_AfterInsert
I have a med-large db shared on network. Am under some pressure to split front/back so more people can do data entry, but want the forms to be semi-finished before putting them on everybody's c:drive.
The problem is error handling for required fields. Some fields are required in the underlying tables because if users don't fill them in, reports are useless. But Access error msg for required fields are too strange, users just close down, maybe wrecking the thing. Don't want to eliminate Close button yet in case they get stuck in Access hell.
I got one ( !! ) field locked in well using LostFocus event, but what do you do if users just mouse into fields at random? LostFocus won't work if it never had focus, right?
(Would much prefer to just use unbound form and give choice of "Field is required" and "OK" or "Cancel this record" but realize that's asking for a lot of help here.)
Any assistance you can offer would be MUCH appreciated!! Vba course isn't until July.
(I'm not sure if this belongs in the macro or query forum)
I have a macro that opens 15 queries and ends with opening a report.
The final query asks the user to type in beginning date, then an end date. Now when there's a data mismatch (i.e., he spells feburary), the macro halts. No harm no foul, they can just click the command button again, but I'd rather not.
What I'd like to do is place a msgbox (i.e., "Check Your Spelling") and then reroute them back to the query.
I have a table in which I have about 245 fields (I know they are too much, but cant change the structure). There are about 4 numeric fields, which have field type as Long Integer. I want to change them to Field type Single. When I try to change them, I get a message too many fields defined. What is the solutionß Can someone suggest? regards K
