Hi,
I am using this simple code =DATABASE!A202 & son on.
I have noticed that if nothing is in the cell in question then on the worksheet where there should be a value etc i see #REF !

Can we use some kind of code so that row is then deleted should #REF ! be in any cell in Column A

Thanks
 
OK
This is where i am so far.
The macro is DeleteRefErrors

I then have this,
Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()Call DeleteRefErrors
End Sub

It works as it should BUT it also advises me when no cells were found,meaning no errors on the page.
Is there a way to suppress this message.

Excel Facts

What is the fastest way to copy a formula?
If A2:A50000 contain data. Enter a formula in B2. Select B2. Double-click the Fill Handle and Excel will shoot the formula down to B50000.
Try
Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
   Worksheets("HONDA SHEET").Activate
   Range("A13").Select
   ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 13
   With Worksheets("INV DETAILS")
      On Error Resume Next
      .Columns("A").SpecialCells(xlFormulas, xlErrors).EntireRow.Delete
      On Error GoTo 0
   End With
End Sub

That codes shows me the same no cells found message.
In that case you didn't use the code I posted, as that will hide the error if it occurs

This is what i have,
I noticed that your zero has a line through it but mine wont show like that



Code:
Private Sub Workbook_Open()   Worksheets("HONDA SHEET").Activate
   Range("A13").Select
   ActiveWindow.ScrollRow = 13
   With Worksheets("INV DETAILS")
      On Error Resume Next
      .Columns("A").SpecialCells(xlFormulas, xlErrors).EntireRow.Delete
      On Error GoTo 0
   End With
End Sub

You should not be getting a "No cells were found" error with that code.

Ive just checked and the code is the same.
I see the code each time i open the workbook.

If that wont work what if we show a msg box but then straight after hide it,basically anything.

This line
Code:
      On Error Resume Next
suppresses all errors, so you should never get any error messages until after this line
Code:
      On Error GoTo 0
which sets the error handler back to the default.
Do you get any other error messages?

NO,
This is what happens.
I open the workbook.
I then see this message.

"Run time error 1004" No cells were found.

If i click on debug this is shown in yellow.
.Columns("A").SpecialCells(xlFormulas, xlErrors).EntireRow.Delete

I only then see it again once the workbook is next open
