Another 'Sheet Exists' Question...
 

Dear All

I'm struggling with working out if a sheet exists in my workbook. I've used
code posted from this group but need to tweek it to create a sheet name based
on a couple of cell values. When I use the code below, Run Time Error 9 is
returned.

myShtName creates a string 'prd1 Product Name' - this is the sheet name I'm
looking for - if it exists then no action is needed, otherwise copy a
template sheet at the end of the workbook, and name the sheet 'prd1 Product
Name'.

As usual, any help gratefully appreciated

Trevor.

Dim rng As Range, cell As Range
Dim ws As Workksheet
Dim myShtName As String

Set rng = Range("productlist")

For Each cell In rng
If cell < "" Then
myShtName = "prd" & cell.Offset(0, -1).Value & " " & cell.Value
Set ws = Worksheets(myShtName)
If ws Is Nothing Then
Sheets("Product Template").Copy After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)
ActiveSheet.Name = myShtName
Range("B3") = cell.Value
End If
End If
Next cell

Hi Trevor,

The Run Time Error 9 is returned when you try and set a reference to a
sheet that doesn't exist. That's fine but do it like this -

On Error Resume Next
Set ws = Nothing
Set ws = Worksheets(myShtName)
On Error goto 0
' or resume normal error handler
If ws is nothing then
'etc

Are you really wanting to potentially insert a sheet in each loop. If so, or
if 'ws' may already refer to a sheet, note the line set ws = Nothing before
testing.

Regards,
Peter T
