I've been using VBA in Excel for a while, and I use a custom error handler for all of my procedures. I find myself, for the first time, in the position of needing to useErr.Raise
(to deal with a Case Else
situation in a Select Case
block)., and I can't figure out how pass the error to the custom error handler. Instead of passing the raised error to the custom handler, VBA pops up its own ugly and fairly useless error dialog. If anyone can tell me a way to get around this I'd be very appreciative.
Below is a genericized version of the code I'm using (function/variable names have been changed to protect the innocent). The gErrorHandler
object is a globally dimensioned class module variable which handles errors from any and all procedures.
Public Function MyFunction(dblInputParameter As Double) As Double
On Error GoTo Err_MyFunction
Dim dblResult as Double
Select Case dblInputParameter
...Several case statements go here...
Case Else
Err.Raise vbObjectError + 1000, "MyProjectName.MyObjectName", "Error Description"
End Select
MyFunction = dblResult
Exit_MyFunction:
Exit Function
Err_MyFunction:
gErrorHandler.DisplayError Err.Number, Err.Description, Erl, csModule, "basMyModuleName", "MyFunction"
Resume Exit_MyFunction
End Function
And here's the error dialog I get instead of having the error passed to the custom handler:
