    conditional check, action, then continue

    Hi there,

    My main goal here is to push a button, and based on the contents of a cell will either show or hide a worksheet.

    I have a macro that checks the contents of a variable on a worksheet for a #DIV/0! error, if there is one, performs an action, and if there isn't, performs an action.

    My problem is I have a long list of these checks I wish to perform in one foul swoop, each with differing actions and reactions based on input. 30 in total. As I'm sure you can see, if there is a divisible by zero error I wish to hide the worksheet, and if there isn't, I wish to show it.

    Long story short, can anyone help with this macro without coding 30 different IF statements?



    Regards,
    Chris

    Sure, list all 30 tests in the order of importance and the sheets these tests should performed on.

    The variables are all on a sheet called Variables. The variables are as follows;

    GROUP1dayworkgangrate
    GROUP1dayshiftgangrate
    GROUP1nightshiftgangrate
    GROUP1svrdaygangrate
    GROUP1svrnightgangrate

    Repeat for Groups 2 to 6.

    Order of preference isn't important, but I I had to choose one I would say Group 1 and upwards.

    Thank you!

    I've just realised I didn't mention the sheets that are to be shown/hidden. They are from Sheets(11) through to (40).

    I recommend you highlight all the variable cells in a single group all at once and give them a global name for the whole group like GROUP1.
    Repeat for all the cell in Group2, etc.

    Now you can cycle through all the sheets and all the GROUPs on the sheets (1 through 6 for each sheet) and test the cells in each group for an error. If an error is ever detected, the sheet is hidden and the macro moves on to the next sheet in the workbook. Something like this:
