Default Error Handling Issues - Pls Help

Can anyone help me understand why this does not work if there are no
pivots on the current sheet. this code is supposed to either use the
pivot the user selected or the 1st pivot on the active sheet and then
update the source data. It works perfectly except when a work sheet
has no pivots - in that case, it creates an error that I cannot catch.

Why does the line On Error GoTo Error_Need_Pivot_Source in the
NoPivotSelected: block not find this error? How can I correct it?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
Tim
