Error Trapping when getting external Data
I am using the following statement to get external OBDC data for refreshing
an Excel 2003 pivot table: Sheets("Source PivotTable").PivotTableWizard SourceType:=xlExternal, SourceData:=Array( _ "SELECT *" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "FROM Data Data" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "WHERE" _ , _ mySQLWhere1 _ , _ mySQLWhere2 & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "ORDER BY " _ , _ "Data.Material, Data.`Serial No`, Data.`Receive Date` DESC"), _ Connection:=Array(Array("ODBC;DSN=MS Access Database;DBQ=" & myPath & myFileName & ";"), _ Array("DefaultDir=" & myPath & ";DriverId=25;FIL=MS Access;MaxBufferSize=2048;"), _ Array("PageTimeout=5;")) I need code to trap the VBA Error 1004 message I get when no data is found. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks Will |

Error Trapping when getting external Data
Hi,
Use the On Error statement to trap the error. Something like: Just before the code, do a On Error Resume Next '.... and after the code, trap the error and process depending on the number / description '... If Err.Number=1004 and Err.Description like "*ODBC*" then msgbox "ODBC error" exit sub ' stop processing of sub elseif err<0 then 'other error msgbox "an unknown error has occured: " & err.number exit sub 'stop processing of sub else 'no error 'nothing particular end if -- Regards, Sébastien <http://www.ondemandanalysis.com "wsummers" wrote: I am using the following statement to get external OBDC data for refreshing an Excel 2003 pivot table: Sheets("Source PivotTable").PivotTableWizard SourceType:=xlExternal, SourceData:=Array( _ "SELECT *" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "FROM Data Data" & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "WHERE" _ , _ mySQLWhere1 _ , _ mySQLWhere2 & Chr(13) & "" & Chr(10) & "ORDER BY " _ , _ "Data.Material, Data.`Serial No`, Data.`Receive Date` DESC"), _ Connection:=Array(Array("ODBC;DSN=MS Access Database;DBQ=" & myPath & myFileName & ";"), _ Array("DefaultDir=" & myPath & ";DriverId=25;FIL=MS Access;MaxBufferSize=2048;"), _ Array("PageTimeout=5;")) I need code to trap the VBA Error 1004 message I get when no data is found.

Error Trapping when getting external Data
Hi Sebastian
Thanks for your suggestion. I originally tried something very similar but for this specific error the err.number is not passed back to the function. It comes across as 0 with no description. May have something to do with it being an SQL/OBDC error which I'm not sure how to identify. Any other ideas? Regards Will "sebastienm" wrote: Hi, Use the On Error statement to trap the error.
