compile error: else without if
I have bee trying to work an example vb problem and keep
getting a compile error: else without if. I do not understand why. Here is the code. Private Sub CndDisplayMsgbox_Click() Dim ButtonChoice As Integer Dim iconchoice As Integer Dim answer As Integer If OptOKOnly.Value = True Then ButtonChoice = vbOKOnly ElseIf OptOKCancel.Value = True Then ButtonChoice = vbOKCancel ElseIf OptAbortRetryIgnore.Value = True Then ButtonChoice = vbAbortRetryIgnore ElseIf OptYesNoCancel.Value = True Then ButtonChoice = vbYesNoCancel ElseIf OptYesNo.Value = True Then ButtonChoice = vbYesNo ElseIf OptRetryCancel.Value = True Then ButtonChoice = vbRetryCancel Else: MsgBox "Unexpected Error in If statement!" End End If Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. TIA |

you also have to add a linebreak after the first Then.

A single line if statement has to all be on one line
if condition then result or if condition then result else other result so you can not put any part of an if statement on another line such as an elseif or end if because they won't match up. the compiler sees the single line if statement as a complete command. the comiler sees a single line if statement if there is anything after the Then statement on the same line. from an appearance standpoint you can do if conditition then : result Elseif condition then : another result else : other result End if by using a command separator, but this is only for appearance. From a code organization stantpoint, it is the same as if condition then result elseif condition then another result else other result end if -- Regards, Tom Ogilvy "papa" wrote in message ...

I didn't get that line copied, but an end if does exist on the next line (that I did not paste). -----Original Message----- Hi change the last line form End to End if -- Regards Frank Kabel Frankfurt, Germany "papa" schrieb im Newsbeitrag . .. My debugger has gotton through the first If/then/else. However, the second one, which looks to me to be just like the first is getting hung up. I have pasted it below, I have used all of your feedback but this is still stalling. Please help.

compile error: else without if
Start all your modules with the line: Option Explicit or in the VBA
editor check the box under Tools, Options, Editor tab, Require Variable Declaration and Excel will automatically insert Option Explicit in each module. Then you must declare all variables with a Dim statement. Any subsequent misspellings will cause a Compile error: Variable not defined which alerts you to the misspellings. Declaring all variables may seem like a pain and a waste of time, but after a few compile errors you will see the value of requiring all variables to be declared. wrote: THAT'S IT! Thank you. It took me a minute to see the difference even in your post. I need to learn to transpose characters. THANK YOU Frank and JWOLF -----Original Message----- Option explicit? optCritial or optCritical? papa wrote: |
