"Restore" excel functions when error or leaving?
 

Hi all,
This is about if users get an error in the middle of my code or just leave a
sheet for a while to go to a completly other xls-file of they own. Is here a
nice way of restore the usual behavour of excel ??

Example:
I use "Application.EnableEvent = False" in several Subs of code, but use to
have a "Application.EnableEvent = True" in the end of the Sub.

The same with a OnKey-code to stop Paste functions.

In one Sub I update the sheet/cell formats through copy from a template
sheet and SpecialPaste Formats only. Now I discovered in an totally new
xls-file, that THAT Sheet took the template formats ...

[ Actually, the last behavour shouldn't be able to happen...i have a
worksheet_change event to trigg the formatUpdate and the new sheet ( I
coudn't say it's a xls file, it wasn't saved as one yet, if this matters...)
took the template format when I pasted into a cell !!!! ]

Therefore - can I ensure to keep the code into the specific file I've
created or it's children...

/Regards

Thank a lot to your respons - yes, error handling and to carefully write the
code to take the original values after each sub...

But if I miss something there would be nice to have something to unable an
OnKey value etc. to continue outside my xls file.

Is there nothing I can put in a Workbook_deactivate event or something?

Hi
IMHO good programming practice should ensure this for each procedure
and not on a higher level
