Bura,

An alternative approach

Sub MySub()
Dim r As Range
Dim isA As Boolean
Dim isB As Boolean

isA = False
isB = False

On Error Resume Next
Set r = ActiveSheet.Range("AAA")
isA = Not r Is Nothing

Set r = ActiveSheet.Range("BBB")
isB = Not r Is Nothing

On Error GoTo 0

If isA Then
doAStuff
ElseIf isB Then
doBStuff
End If
End Sub

Hi,

I'm going nuts trying to solve the following problem. If I execute the
following code when the active sheet has no named ranges, the first error
is
trapped successfully, but the second one does not get trapped and the
execution breaks!

Sub MySub()
Dim r as Range
Dim isA as Boolean
Dim isB as Boolean

isA = False
isB = False

TryA:
On Error GoTo TryB
Set r = ActiveSheet.Range("AAA")
isA= True
GoTo Proceed

TryB:
On Error GoTo Proceed
Set r = ActiveSheet.Range("BBB")
isB = True
GoTo Proceed

Proceed:
If isAThen
doAStuff
ElseIf isB Then
doBStuff
End If
End Sub

Perhaps it's invalid to have 2 "On Error" statements? In any case, I will
really appreciate your help!
