    Red face Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    Hi,
    This time I have a different Problem and I am sure that you people can help me....

    In the attached sheet, there are macros which will pull the data from the respective files allocated to it and update this master workbook.

    I have updated a macro to do all those copy-pasting sheet by sheet.

    What I need is, if the any of the macro fails, it should skip to other and in the end, it should tell me which are the macros failed without stopping the operation in the middle.

    This is required to know that, which files are missing from the folder, so that I can take the followup of that, instead of searching everytime with the list.

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    You could change your macros into functions and thus have the opportunity of returning a code which signifies the result.
    Based on this returncode you can handle the rest of the macros.

    Structure could be:

    Alter sub OpenAndCopy_Liq() into Function OpenAndCopy_Liq()
    and add (at the appropriate location) the following line to Function OpenAndCopy_Liq:

    You can use responses from the set statements to determine what returncode to set.
    Cheers!

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    This will display all errors at the end in a ListBox: New Consolidated MSR.zip

    BTW: As far as I saw you are doing the same for each of the sheets, just the target file is different. Why then just write one sub with parameters source and target?

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    Tsjallie ::: Thanks for your help. But I really couldnt understand what to do... All the codes that is written there are just copy pastes from this and several other sites. I have no idea how it works. So, can you help me in detail?



    tehneXus ::: Thanks for the macro. But I am getting error like DLL missing in the DU Dashboard tab and is not moving forward. Can you please help with that?

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    IF that is difficult, just check the defined workbooks (20 Nos) with that particular name and extension is there before executing the macro in summary sheet and return which files are not present at the end.

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    Hi,

    do not write "On Error GoTo 0" when there is error handling at the beginning, try New Consolidated MSR 2.zip

    In the dashboard sheet I started fixing the powerpoint stuff (code is commented below your code), maybe you'd like to continue?

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    Hi,
    The new workbook is just opening the other workbook. Not copy pasting.
    I have uploaded my files in the below link. May be this can help.

    I am getting script out of range error message on DU Dashboard tab. Was it not supposed to give the correct error message when the template file is missing?

    I know that I am asking too much and will consume a lot of time...

    But Pls

    Here is the file

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    And if this is difficult, just a macro to check all the files are present will also do for now. That macro should return what are all the missing files in the end as a popup and end the running of macro.
    No need to run the macro after that since I will be running the whole thing again if any of the files are missing.


    (But I know that, this will only gives whether the files are missing or not, and if the whole thing fails because of any other issues, I will not be getting any warning.)

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    Hi,

    the following was implemented:
    1. Macro checks for all files, if file not found msgbox will appear and no copying will be done

    2. Copy code rewritten into ONE sub in Module1

    3. I have no idea about copying charts/shapes into powerpoint, for this you should open a new thread (in case everything else works)

    File: New Consolidated MSR 2.zip

    Contains:

    and a Form showing errors in a listbox...

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    Perfect Boss... Just perfect....


    I am making this thread as solved...
    Thanks once again


    I know I am asking more, but is there any option to list all the missing file in a single warning message?

    Eg: If R.0007420_Singapore_MSR.xlsx and R.0007418_Air Fil_MSR.xlsx are missing, the error message should show like

    ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________

    The following files are missing from the list

    R.0007418_Air Fil_MSR.xlsx
    R.0007420_Singapore_MSR.xlsx

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    Didn't I created a button on the summary sheet?

    If you want to call this from a Form Button and want to see it in the Assign-macro selection, move the code to a standard module.

    or

    Create an ActiveX Button on the sheet, doubleclick it and moe the code into it.

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    Hi,
    I have tried both the methods and tried to put a seperate module also. Then also it is not coming. In the active X button, after copypasting the macro, the popup comes like which macro to run (and the desired macro is not there also). Please help.
    Can you pls create a button in the following file?

    Sorry to disturb you again

    Re: Macro to show Which macro didnt work in a nested macro

    i think many people dont know about assigning a macro to the private module (I hope that is its name). So better to put another post
    Thanks....
