Next: Custom message in shell command in ms-access
From: Naushad on 31 Jan 2010 03:05
Hi All,

I have written a VBA code to open a word file in iexplore by the shell
command. If the file is not found a message is displayed and the
internet explorer is opened.

I want to display the custom message and don't want to open the
iexplore. My code are as follows

Private Sub cmdReport_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdReport_Click

Dim VarPath As String
Dim VarReport As String
Dim varRepDate As Variant
Dim VarCon As String

VarPath = "C:\Documents and Settings\nhaider\Desktop\"
varRepDate = Format$(Me.ReportDate, "dd\-mm\-yy")
VarReport = varRepDate & "@" & Me.Project__ & ".doc"
VarCon = VarPath & VarReport

Shell "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe " &
VarCon, vbMaximizedFocus

Me.ReportDate.SetFocus

Exit_cmdReport_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_cmdReport_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdReport_Click

End Sub

Please help me to solve this problem.

Thanks in advance

Check for the existence of the file yourself and display your own message if
it's not found.

Private Sub cmdReport_Click()
On Error GoTo Err_cmdReport_Click

Dim VarPath As String
Dim VarReport As String
Dim varRepDate As Variant
Dim VarCon As String

VarPath = "C:\Documents and Settings\nhaider\Desktop\"
varRepDate = Format$(Me.ReportDate, "dd\-mm\-yy")
VarReport = varRepDate & "@" & Me.Project__ & ".doc"
VarCon = VarPath & VarReport

if len(dir(VarCon) > 0 Then
Shell "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe " &
VarCon, vbMaximizedFocus
else
Msgbox "Can't find the file '" & VarCon & "'"
End if
Me.ReportDate.SetFocus

Exit_cmdReport_Click:
Exit Sub

Err_cmdReport_Click:
MsgBox Err.Description
Resume Exit_cmdReport_Click

End Sub
