Solved: "Cancel" selection causes a break in flow

[Rlb53]

The code below allows the user to select a worksheet name listed in a drop down box and delete the worksheet.

It also allows the row, within a separate work sheet that contains the worksheet name reference list, to be deleted so it does not display in the drop down box for future selection and return an error.

During process, display of the confirmation box to "Delete" the selected worksheet or "Cancel" the operation appears. (Just as desired)

As long as "Delete" is selected in the confirmation box the macro works fine.

Should "Cancel" be selected in the confirmation box an error occurs providing "AutoFilter method of Range class failed".

Disabling the application.display prevents the error but does not provide the user the option to cancel.

I have unsuccesfully attempted to divide the code into sections, disable the application.display and create a userform with command buttons to redirect the flow to the desired Sub Command.

May there be a recommendation available to recognize the "Cancel" selection in the confirmation box and redirect the flow?

Thank you for your assistance.

Have you tried setting Application.DisplayAlerts to False and then back to True?

[Rlb53]

Yes.

"Application.DisplayAlerts = False" allows the flow to continue with desired resluts, however it does not provide the user a secondary means to confirm / cancel the information deletion process.

(Just in case they selected the incorrect worksheet name)

[mikerickson]

You could write your own confirmation box and branch like this

For Loop = start To stop
    Rem do stuff

    If MsgBox("Are you sure?", vbYesNo) = vbYes Then
        Application.DisplayAlerts = False
        Rem code to delete stuff
        Application.DisplayAlerts = True
    End If

Next Loop

Thank you....

I'll plug that in and respond.

Thank You Mike !

The process did not specifically require a Loop, but the installation of the Msgbox w/ YesNo controls along with corresponding If, Then, Else conditions.

I have been fighting this configuration for what seems "Forever", I knew it was going to be something reasonably simple, but I did not know how to acquire and process the appropriate response from the user to continue the flow correctly.

Thank you immensely for sharing your knowledge !

Below is the ending code that works like a Charm !
