I tried adding OnError on my current sub. I success adding it but it always shows the Error message even there is no error. How to add the OnError correctly?


Public Sub Searcher()
Dim wss As Integer
wss = Application.InputBox("Please enter Sheet Number", "Sheet Select", Type:=1)
With ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(wss)
.Select
.Activate
End With
End Sub

How to find 2nd largest value in a column?
MAX finds the largest value. =LARGE(A:A,2) will find the second largest. =SMALL(A:A,3) will find the third smallest
Hi welcome to forum

try

VBA Code:
Public Sub Searcher()
    Dim wss         As Variant
    
    On Error GoTo myerror
    wss = Application.InputBox("Please enter Sheet Number", "Sheet Select", Type:=1)
    'cancel pressed
    If VarType(wss) = vbBoolean Then Exit Sub
    
    'your code
    
myerror:
If Err <> 0 Then MsgBox (Error(Err)), 48, "Error"
End Sub

when using an InputBox, your code should include handling user pressing Cancel button

Welcome to the Board!

If I enter a valid worksheet number, it works fine for me, without any errors.
What exactly are you entering in?

Realize that code is going by the the worksheet index number, not the name.

Actually the macro is fine. I was just avoiding users to mishandle the sub so I was trying to put OnError on it.

Thanks for greetings by the way.

OK, but I thought you said:
it but it always shows the Error message even there is no error.
but I cannot create that scenario.

Is that really an issue, or no?

I get it now. Now I know why the message still pops up even there is no error..I forgot to exit sub.

I am still confused using the right variables for my DIM. Originally my dim fof wss is Integer. and never used Boolean

There isn't any error handling code or messages in your original post, which is why I am so confused.
Maybe you had it in at one time, but didn't include it in your original post?

Yes I removed it after my trial and error. I was so frustrated I removed the OnError before I posted this on the forums. But anyways it is complete now.Thank you very much
