Please help. I have no clue why I'm getting an error that says 'object variable or with block variable not set"

I have a userform with several textboxes, checkboxes, and radio buttons on it. They are not all required. My goal is to get the values or captions of these controls to display in the body of an email.

The code below works fine as long as none of the checkboxes or textboxes are empty. What do I need to do to prevent this error?


Code:
If Me.optExisting.Value = True Then   strBody = "****** style=" & "font face=calibri" & "font size=11" & ">" & "<b><i>Please refer to the details of the request below:</i></b>" & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    "********************************************" & _
    "<b>" & Me.lblDate & ": " & "</b>" & Me.txtDate.Value & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    "<b>" & Me.lblBusinessNeed & ": " & "</b>" & Me.txtBusinessNeed & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    "<b>" & Me.lblProduct & ": " & "</b>" & Me.txtProduct & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    "<b>" & Me.lblCopyFrom & ": " & "</b>" & Me.txtCopyFrom & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    "<b>" & Me.lblExtend & ": " & "</b>" & Me.txtExtend & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    "<b>" & Me.lblAddDeal & ": " & "</b>" & Me.frameAddDeal.ActiveControl.Caption & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    "<b>" & Me.lblNewExist & ": " & "</b>" & Me.frameNewExist.ActiveControl.Caption & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    strBody = strBody & "****************Deal Information Below****************************" & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    "<b>" & Me.chkTerminal.Caption & ": " & "</b>" & Me.txtTerminal.Value & " - " & Me.frameTerminal.ActiveControl.Caption & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    "<b>" & Me.chkBlend.Caption & ": " & "</b>" & Me.txtBlend.Value & " - " & Me.frameBlend.ActiveControl.Caption & _
    "<br><br>" & _
    "********************************************" & "</BODY>"
     End If
 
Does your code look like post#7, I've added a linebreak to it.

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.
OK, then what Fluff and I were talking about doesn't really apply here.

I would focus on the reply from Dave, especially his recommendation on not using "Me".

Could you also post the entire code, as the problem could well lie elsewhere.

Here is the entire sub procedure:

    Dim OutMail As Object

    Dim strBody As String
    Dim strBody1 As String
    Dim strBody2 As String
    Dim sig$
    Dim ctrl As Control
    Dim ctrlCheck As String






    
If Me.NoDeal.Value = True Then
    strBody = "****** style=" & "font face=calibri" & "font size=11" & ">" & "[B][I]Please refer to the details of the request below:[/I][/B]" & _

    Set OutApp = New Outlook.Application
    Set OutMail = OutApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
    
    With OutMail
        .Display
        sig = .HTMLBody
        .To = ""
        .CC = ""
        .BCC = ""
        .Subject = Me.Caption
        .HTMLBody = strBody
       ' .Attachments.Add myfile
        .Display   'or use .Send
    End With
    On Error GoTo 0
    Set OutMail = Nothing
    Set OutApp = Nothing
    
End Sub

The other two If statements work perfectly (where there would be no null values), I'm thinking it's something with there being empty check boxes. When the error pops up, it highlights the code that I've put in red font.

Still getting the same error that highlights the same lines of code. *sigh*

So, let me ask this question... Is it possible to show the caption of an unchecked checkbox?

Maybe that where it's hanging up?? Because I wouldn't have all boxes checked on the form...

That shouldn't be a problem.
Check that your controls are named correctly

Posting the same question to multiple sites is known as "Cross-Posting". While we do not prohibit Cross-Posting on this site, we do ask that you please mention you are doing so and provide links in each of the threads pointing to the other thread (see rule 13 here along with the explanation: Forum Rules). This way, other members can see what has already been done in regards to a question, and do not waste time working on a question that may already be answered.

Oh okay. My apologies. Yes, It's the same project I've been working on for awhile but I decided to just list out and display the value of all controls. I thought I was asking two different questions.

On the other post, I was trying to see how if I could only return ones with a value.

Now, I just decided to list them all out. I'm stuck on that one part.
