Can I place "On Error GOTO xxx" into module level?
 

Hi all,

Just have a question.

I have developed so many subroutines in many modules of a workbook,
including an error handling procedure which handles any unhandled errors..
Instead of writing an error-handling routine within all subroutines, is it
possible to write an error-handling routines once in a workbook so as to
apply to all other subroutines?

By the way, is there a syntax something like "On Error GoTo <Subroutine" or
"On Error GoSub ... " in VBA?

Thanks a lot.

In short no (to the best of my knowledge). Every sub must have an error
handler in it. However as to the second part of your question sure... I have
a standard error handling module that I use in all of my projects. I add the
module and my error handler just calls a sub within it. There are a bunch of
standard things like resetting the application level settings and a form is
displayed showing the nature of the error...

Private Sub TestStuff()
On Error GoTo ErrorHandler
'Your Code Here
Exit Sub

ErrorHandler:
modErrors.HandleError
End Sub
--
HTH...

So is there a syntax like "On Error GoSub HandleError"? This should have
been much more convenient.
