Hi experts,

Mi user can put in a lot of data in my application in the lines 3 -1000 and
columns b,c,e,f,g.
After the input my application will start calculating a lot but if the user
put in a wrong number in a cell my formulas will return an error somwhere in
the sheet.

Question:

I would like to find out if, anywhere in the sheet, there is a formule giving
an error message like
- #NB or
-VALUE or
- etc....

Is this possible to do for the range A3:X1000 ?
If it is, i would be able to then show a message that some input was wrong
and stop the calculation...

Thanks,
Pierre

Hi Pierre,

Try:

'==============
Public Sub aTester()
Dim rng1 As Range
Dim rng2

Set rng1 = Range("A3:X1000")

On Error Resume Next
Set rng2 = rng1.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas, xlErrors)
On Error GoTo 0

If Not rng2 Is Nothing Then
'Errors found
MsgBox "Errors in " & rng2.Address(0, 0)
End If

End Sub
'<<==============

Hi Norman,

I tried your code but there seems to generate an error each time i run it.

first:
on the line
If Not rng2 Is Nothing Then
i get the error message "object required"

second: the code itself generates an error but it still stops the code in
stead of handling the error
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Pierre

Hi Pierre,

Change:

Dim rng2

to
Dim rng2 As Range

Hi Norman,

I found out what the problem was....my sheet was protected and then your code
does not work.

Question:
- Is there a way to have your code work with a protected sheet (other then
unprotect it and protect it again after the code) ?
- is there a way to just give the rownumber back to the user?

Thanks,
Pierre

Hi Pierre,

Question:
- Is there a way to have your code work with a protected sheet (other then
unprotect it and protect it again after the code) ?

Setting the Protect method's UserInterfaceOnly parameter to true enables vba
manipulation of the protected sheet.

However, this setting is not persistent and needs to be reset each time the
workbook is opened.

Perhaps, therefore, you could set protection in the Workbook_Open or
Auto_Open procedures, e.g.:

'==========
Sub Auto_Open()
With Worksheets("sheet1")
.Protect Password:="drowssap", UserInterfaceOnly:=True
End With
End Sub
'<<==========

- is there a way to just give the rownumber back to the user?

Yes, a string of row numbers can be built and reported. However, given that
your initial post indicated a 24 column range, would reporting the row
number be sufficient? If errors will only occur in a single column or a
subset of the A3:X1000 range, then this can be reflected in the macro's rng
variable assignment. If you really do want row numbers reported (rather than
cell addresses), what do you want to happen if multiple errors occur on a
given row?

Hi Norman,

thanks for the UserInterfaceOnly solution !

In my application the user can fill in only 4 columns (B,C,E,and F)
Only C,E and F can cause possible error (because these are colums where the
user has to input a date, salary and a parttime%. The rest of the columns are
calculations based on the user input.

The code you gave now gives the first error that it encounters.
Is there a code that would give msgbox stating all the rows where errors
occurred?
By the way, i adapted the code to the following:
sub but_test click()
Dim rng1 As Range
Dim rng2
Set rng1 = Range("A3:X1000")
On Error Resume Next
Sheets("deelnemers").Unprotect Password:="ekmef1"
Set rng2 = rng1.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeFormulas, xlErrors)
On Error GoTo 0
If Not rng2 Is Nothing Then
'Errors found
MsgBox "your input cause an error in row " & rng2.Row - 2 & _
Chr(13) & Chr(13) & "Check your input and press the button again please'"
Sheets("deelnemers").Protect Password:="ekmef1"
Exit Sub
End If

Please help me again and thanks,
Pierre

Assuming that you have protected the sheet using the UserInterfaceOnly
parameter, it is not necessary to unprotect / reprotect the sheet.
