Object = Nothing

[Todd Bardoni]

How do I trap or test for an error where the object equals nothing?

Set OrderDetail = .document.all.Item("link_to_j26_button")
x = OrderDetail.Click

Do If obj Is Nothing Then

 

[tusharm]

"Is Nothing," as in

if x is nothing then

or

if not (x is nothing) then

 

[Jaafar Tribak]

How about...

Set OrderDetail = .document.all.Item("link_to_j26_button")
If OrderDetail Is Nothing Then
    'Continue here....
End If
x = OrderDetail.Click

I did and it doesn't work. I get that error message that says something about not having the block end if/with. And when i hit help it says the error was generated by an object being nothing. Then it says to re set it. But I don't know what exactly that means. re-set it to what? I just want to test if the object exists but I'm having a hard time. i could use On Error Goto...but this is in a loop and when it comes back around it triggers the Debug dialog box. If I use on Error resume next, then I get some results that I do not want. So, it would seem my only alternative is to test for it but the If statement doesn't work...

Ugh, never mind...

I had:-
If OrderDetail = Nothing then...


It should be as Jaafar points out, Is Nothing...

Ughhh....

 

[GlennUK]

You mean .... as all of us pointed out!

 

[Todd Bardoni]

Yep, as you, and Tushar as well pointed out.

Thanks, guys.
