Problem: I want to create a backup of a workbook on open and feel there
are four possible error conditions to handle. Each should display a different message to tell the user what is wrong. 1. disk full 2. disk write protected 3. file already open 4. file is read-only I have an (partial) error handler designed but find that no matter which condition actually exists always takes the Case Else path. Sometimes err.number is "1004" while othertimes it is "0" (as seen in the message box). code follows. What am I doing wrong? Sub Auto_open() On Error GoTo ErrorHandler If InStr(1, ThisWorkbook.Name, ".bck") < 1 Then tmp = InStr(1, ThisWorkbook.Name, ".") bckName = Left(ThisWorkbook.Name, tmp - 1) + ".bck" ActiveWorkbook.SaveCopyAs (bckName) End If ErrorHandler: Select Case Err.Number Case 61 msg = "Disk full. Click Yes to continue without creating a backup." msg = msg + "Otherwise click No to exit Excel." response = MsgBox(msg, vbYesNo, "Warning: Disk Full") If response = 6 Then Exit Sub Application.Quit Case Else r = MsgBox("Error # :" & Err.Number & Err.Description, vbOKOnly) End Select End Sub thanks in advance..... |
