Adding in error handling

[jr0124]

Thank you in advance for your help!

I have the code for saving my file working the way I'd like it to as long as the path already exists. When I share with my team though, they may have named their folder something different. What I'd like to do is add in error handling where if the path needed does not exist it goes to the users 'my documents' folder. I am still learning VBA but whenever I try to add it in I just end up with more errors. Thoughts?

Sub saveaswithlocationwithusernamewitherrorhandling()

    Dim file_name As Variant

    Dim fName As String

    ChDrive "C"

    ChDir "C:\Users\" & Environ("username") & "\Documents\Job Folders - 2020\" & Range("C13")

    fName = "Offer Checklist - " & Range("C26").Value & " " & Range("C27").Value & " - " & Range("C13").Value

 

    ' Get the file name.

    file_name = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(fName, _

                                              Filefilter:="Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook,*.xlsm,All Files,*.*", _

                                              Title:="Save As File Name")

    ' See if the user canceled.

    If file_name = False Then Exit Sub

    ' Save the file with the new name.

    If LCase$(Right$(file_name, 5)) <> ".xlsm" Then

        file_name = file_name & ".xlsm"

    End If

    ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=file_name, FileFormat:=52

   

    

End Sub

How about:

Sub saveaswithlocationwithusernamewitherrorhandling()
  Dim file_name As Variant, fName As String, sPath1 As String
  ChDrive "C"
  sPath1 = "C:\Users\" & Environ("username") & "\Documents\Job Folders - 2020\" & Range("C13")
  If Dir(sPath1, vbDirectory) = "" Then
    sPath1 = "C:\Users\" & Environ("username") & "\Documents"
  End If
  ChDir sPath1
  '
  fName = "Offer Checklist - " & Range("C26").Value & " " & Range("C27").Value & " - " & Range("C13").Value
  ' Get the file name.
  file_name = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(fName, _
              Filefilter:="Excel Macro-Enabled Workbook,*.xlsm,All Files,*.*", _
              Title:="Save As File Name")
  ' See if the user canceled.
  If file_name = False Then Exit Sub
  ' Save the file with the new name.
  If LCase$(Right$(file_name, 5)) <> ".xlsm" Then
      file_name = file_name & ".xlsm"
  End If
  ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=file_name, FileFormat:=52
End Sub

That worked! Would you be able to help with this one so that if they hit 'yes' but the director is not there that it just goes to the end?

Sub Path_Exists()

 

Dim Path As String

Dim Folder As String

Dim Answer As VbMsgBoxResult

 

    Path = "C:\Users\" & Environ("username") & "\Documents\Job Folders - 2020\" & Range("C13")

 

    Folder = Dir(Path, vbDirectory)

    If Folder = vbNullString Then

 

        Answer = MsgBox("Path does not exist. Would you like to create it?", vbYesNo, "Create Path?")

 

        Select Case Answer

            Case vbYes

                VBA.FileSystem.MkDir (Path)

            Case Else

                Exit Sub

        End Select

 

    Else

 

    End If

   

 

End Sub

I do not understand what do you need.
