Having issues with errors in my vba code can someone help me?


Okay,

So i was writing this all day today, and i just found out it fails if there are no colors detected.

What do you guys think i should do?

I tried a error handling the whole thing but it didnt work.

code:

Sub UpdateTemplate_off_Color()

Sheets("test code").Activate
'R-203
Text203 = Sheets("Original Data").Range("I24")
'R-18
Text18 = Sheets("Original Data").Range("I22")
'R-19
Text19 = Sheets("Original Data").Range("L26")
'R-21
Text21 = Sheets("Original Data").Range("I28")
'R-59
Text59 = Sheets("Original Data").Range("I30")
'R-650
Text650 = Sheets("Original Data").Range("I40")
'R-1161
Text1161 = Sheets("Original Data").Range("I38")

IF you are interested, here is the code to color all rows with specific value in Column B the above code relies on this code. But what if the column is all blank? i need to plan for that situation.

Public Sub changecolor()

Range(Range("B2"), Range("B2").End(xlDown)).Select

'remove past colors
    ActiveSheet.Cells.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone

Set MyPlage = Selection

For Each Cell In MyPlage

Select Case Cell.Value

Case Is = "R-203"
Cells(Cell.Row, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 37
Cells(Cell.Row, "B").Interior.ColorIndex = 37

Case Is = "M-946"
Cells(Cell.Row, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 45
Cells(Cell.Row, "B").Interior.ColorIndex = 45

Case Is = "R-1161"
Cells(Cell.Row, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 44
Cells(Cell.Row, "B").Interior.ColorIndex = 44

Case Is = "r-650"
Cells(Cell.Row, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 45
Cells(Cell.Row, "B").Interior.ColorIndex = 45
Case Is = "R-650"
Cells(Cell.Row, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 45
Cells(Cell.Row, "B").Interior.ColorIndex = 45

Case Is = "R-59"
Cells(Cell.Row, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 24
Cells(Cell.Row, "B").Interior.ColorIndex = 24

Case Is = "R-21"
Cells(Cell.Row, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 22
Cells(Cell.Row, "B").Interior.ColorIndex = 22

Case Is = "R-19"
Cells(Cell.Row, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 15
Cells(Cell.Row, "B").Interior.ColorIndex = 15

Case Is = "R-18"
Cells(Cell.Row, "A").Interior.ColorIndex = 20
Cells(Cell.Row, "B").Interior.ColorIndex = 20

Case Else
Cell.EntireRow.Interior.ColorIndex = xlNone


End Select
Next
End Sub

Solution

  • This:

    'R-203 - TEXT203
    Range(Range("A2"), Range("A2").End(xlDown)).Select
        Set rColored = Nothing
        For Each rCell In Selection
            If rCell.Interior.Color = Color203 Then
                If rColored Is Nothing Then
                    Set rColored = rCell
                Else
                    Set rColored = Union(rColored, rCell)
                End If
            End If
        Next
    
    On Error GoTo skipthispart203:
            rColored.Select
            Selection.Offset(0, 11).Select
    
            For Each i In Selection
                'i.Value = i.Value & Text
                'i.Value = Text & i.Value
                i.Value = Text203
            Next i
    skipthispart203:
    
        Set rCell = Nothing
        Set rColored = Nothing
    

    Is functionally the same as this:

    Dim rngSrch as Range, c As Range
    
    Set rngSrch = Range(Range("A2"), Range("A2").End(xlDown))
    For each c In rngSrch.Cells
        If c.Interior.Color = Color203 Then
            c.offset(0,11).Value = Text203
        End If
    Next c
    

    Unless there's something else you're leaving out.

    And since you're repeating the same block you can wrap it in a Sub and call it from your main UpdateTemplate_off_Color Sub:

    Sub UpdateTemplate_off_Color()
    
        Dim shtOD As Worksheet, shtTC As Worksheet
        Dim rngSrch As Range
    
        Set shtTC = Sheets("test code")
        Set shtOD = Sheets("Original Data")
    
        Set rngSrch = shtTC.Range(shtTC.Range("A2"), _
                                  shtTC.Range("A2").End(xlDown))
    
        TextByColor rngSrch, RGB(153, 204, 255), shtOD.Range("I24").Value 'R-203
        TextByColor rngSrch, RGB(204, 255, 255), shtOD.Range("I22").Value 'R-18
        TextByColor rngSrch, RGB(192, 192, 192), shtOD.Range("L26").Value 'R-19
        TextByColor rngSrch, RGB(255, 128, 128), shtOD.Range("I28").Value 'R-21
        TextByColor rngSrch, RGB(204, 204, 255), shtOD.Range("I30").Value 'R-59
        TextByColor rngSrch, RGB(255, 153, 0), shtOD.Range("I40").Value 'R-650
        TextByColor rngSrch, RGB(255, 204, 0), shtOD.Range("I38").Value 'R-1161
    
    End Sub
    
    Sub TextByColor(rngSrch As Range, clr As Long, txt)
        Dim c As Range
        For Each c In rngSrch.Cells
            If c.Interior.Color = clr Then
                c.Offset(0, 11).Value = txt
            End If
        Next c
    End Sub
