Hi,

I've had this code working for over 3 years now:

VBA Code:
' Ignore Errors when Worksheet Activated
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()

Dim r As Range: Set r = Range("A2:AQ200")
Dim cel As Range

For Each cel In r
  With cel
    .Errors(8).Ignore = True 'Data Validation Error
    .Errors(9).Ignore = True 'Inconsistent Error
    .Errors(6).Ignore = True 'Lock Error
  End With
Next cel

End Sub


But today it is no longer working.

On my PC my excel version is:
1705289868642.png

and the code no longer works.

But on my laptop I have a slightly older version of excel (Version 2302 Build 16130.20868) and it works fine.

I am guessing the update has broken something or it has changed somehow.

Is there a few way to ignore errors in a certain part of a spreadsheet?

Thanks in advance :)

Excel Facts

Repeat Last Command
Pressing F4 adds dollar signs when editing a formula. When not editing, F4 repeats last command.
On error resume next. It is best to find out what the error is though.

My laptop has just updated after a few days and now the code is not working on there also.

Is there another way to ignore errors for everyone who opens my spreadsheet?

Thanks!

Does it work if you change them all ?

VBA Code:
' Ignore Errors when Worksheet Activated
Private Sub Worksheet_Activate()

Dim r As Range: Set r = Range("A2:AQ200")
Dim cel As Range
Dim i As Long
Dim arrErrortypes As Variant

arrErrortypes = Array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

For i = 0 To UBound(arrErrortypes) - 1
    For Each cel In r
      With cel
        .Errors(arrErrortypes(i)).Ignore = True
      End With
    Next cel
Next i

End Sub

Next i

End Sub

I tried your code and sadly not - I am wondering if this is a update issue or if they have updated the way to ignore errors but I can't seem to find anything.
