Run Time Error Problems

[MichaelRo]

Hi,

Been trying all afternoon to sort this out

Here's my code:

Sheets("Sheet1").range("B5:M7").ClearContents

For irow = 5 To 7
Sheets("Sheet1").Select
strContactType = Cells(irow, 1).Value
    For icol = 2 To 13
       Sheets("Sheet1_Data").Select
       Cells(1, 1).Select
       Cells.Find(What:=strContactType, After:=ActiveCell,   LookIn:=xlFormulas, LookAt:= _
        xlPart, SearchOrder:=xlByColumns, SearchDirection:=xlNext, MatchCase:= _
        False, SearchFormat:=False).Activate
    iDataVal = ActiveCell.Offset(0, icol - 1).Range("a1").Value
    Sheets("Sheet1").Cells(irow, icol).Value = iDataVal
    Next
Next

Works until in can't find the strContactType - Tried with Error Handling (Removed for Code Posting) to no avail.

Any Idea's Please...!!

Hi Michael,

Rather than activating the Find range try assigning it to a range variable. You can then test whether anything has been found by testing whether then range variable is Nothing. You can then perform the appropriate action depending on the result of your test.

What exactly are you trying to do?

Sounds like a reasonable solution - Not entirely sure how I'd do that though??

Basically - I have a list on a report (Sheet1)

I want to check if there is data available for all of the Contact Types (Columns 2-13 or Months (Jan-Dec))

If there is - transfer that information into the report sheet.

I read somewhere that the Find function retains the last search criteria and cannot be cleared, as a result throws up an error!!
