Hello,

I have a userform that has decided that it is going to close excel each time I use it. I'm not sure where I've gone wrong in my coding and was hoping someone could double check it for me.

thanks!

Code:
 Private Sub CommandButton5_Click()'"next" page button
On Error GoTo Helper
'Application.Visible = False
    Unload Me
    UserForm2.Show


'Error Clearing Code
Exit Sub
Helper:
    resp = MsgBox("We're sorry to see you've encountered an error." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "To proceed, we recommend you contact the Developer " & _
    "with error codes [1044] and " & "[" & Err.Number & "-" & Err.Description & "]." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "To attempt to patch your problem at least " & _
    "temporarily, we recommend you click [Yes] to see help directions. Would you like to continue?", vbYesNoCancel, name)
        If resp = vbYes Then
            UserForm18.Show
            'MsgBox ("Success")
        ElseIf resp = vbNo Then
            Exit Sub
        ElseIf resp = vbCancel Then
            Exit Sub
        End If
End Sub

Private Sub UserForm_Terminate()
On Error GoTo Helper
Unload Me
            'Application Closer
                If Workbooks.Count > 1 Then
                    ActiveWorkbook.Close
                Else: Application.Quit
                End If
'Error Clearing Code
Exit Sub
Helper:
    resp = MsgBox("We're sorry to see you've encountered an error." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "To proceed, we recommend you contact the Developer " & _
    "with error codes [1060] and " & "[" & Err.Number & "-" & Err.Description & "]." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "To attempt to patch your problem at least " & _
    "temporarily, we recommend you click [Yes] to see help directions. Would you like to continue?", vbYesNoCancel, name)
        If resp = vbYes Then
            UserForm18.Show
            'MsgBox ("Success")
        ElseIf resp = vbNo Then
            Exit Sub
        ElseIf resp = vbCancel Then
            Exit Sub
        End If
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

Can Excel fill bagel flavors?
You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
How would I go about doing it? My thought being that I have a TON of modules and would love if on error, userform18 would come up with the error code...then I'd put code in (that i know) that would allow a user to send an email directly to me with the error code displayed in the userform....

that and code to screenshot the line of the error would be awesome

Thanks!

You haven't really given a lot of information, but assuming you have a form with textbox1 to display the error, you'd add an error handler to each routine and call a routine that does something like this:

Code:
With userformname
.textboxname.text = err.description
.show
end with

Oh fair enough. Ok, so I just snagged a piece of code out of a randomly chosen module. Obviously this is at the end of the module (just a snippet) and the module starts with "On Error Goto Helper."

Code:
'Error Clearing CodeExit Sub
Helper:
    resp = MsgBox("We're sorry to see you've encountered an error." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "To proceed, we recommend you contact the Developer " & _
    "with error codes [1105] and " & "[" & Err.Number & "-" & Err.Description & "]." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "To attempt to patch your problem at least " & _
    "temporarily, we recommend you click [Yes] to see help directions. Would you like to continue?", vbYesNoCancel, name)
        If resp = vbYes Then
            UserForm18.Show
            'MsgBox ("Success")
        ElseIf resp = vbNo Then
            Exit Sub
        ElseIf resp = vbCancel Then
            Exit Sub
        End If
End Sub

Every module has a unique identifier (in this case 1105) that I've assigned so that I can, when told there's an error, I can find which module/section of code to start in (now you see there's a LOT of pieces to this workbook....).

Further, if the user hits "Yes", the idea is to have Userform18 show. Userform18 has a few cmd buttons and a text box (for displaying the error). One cmd is to return to the workbook with the error reset (i.e. just skipping over it), one is to have a printout of the error (not sure how to do this yet), and one is to send the email (knwo how to send the email) with the error (not sure how) and a screenshot of the error (showing the line) (not sure how to do)...

thanks for your help!

This is amazing @RoryA. Took me a minute to actually realize how it was working and then I was like "Duh, brilliant!"

So one last question- based on the code below, and the userform18 code posted below (which as you can see, there isn't much...), and the "email" coding posted below (for sending an email)- anyway- trying to send a debug.print (of an error code/error'd piece) screen in that email. Would you know how to do this?

thanks again @RoryA, really!

new error coding
Code:
 'Error Clearing CodeExit Sub
Helper:
    resp = MsgBox("We're sorry to see you've encountered an error." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "To proceed, we recommend you contact the Developer " & _
    "with error codes [1011] and " & "[" & Err.Number & "-" & Err.Description & "]." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "To attempt to patch your problem at least " & _
    "temporarily, we recommend you click [Yes] to see help directions. Would you like to continue?", vbYesNoCancel, name)
        If resp = vbYes Then
            With UserForm18
                .TextBox1.Text = Err.Number & "-" & Err.Description
                .Show
            End With
        ElseIf resp = vbNo Then
            Exit Sub
        ElseIf resp = vbCancel Then

                .Attachments.Add TempFileName
