OOps... I meant to remove that.
But I'll explain.
When debugging a large/complex macro, it's often helpful to use "breakpoints".
(do you use breakpoints?)
Breakpoints:
you select a line and hit the "hand" icon or simply click in the left-hand
border in the editor.
I've often had SEVERAL breakpoints in a large macro.
But, when you save and exit your workbook and return, the breakpoints are
GONE!!!
Also, I've often used a technique in which I'm processing thousands of records
and I want to pause at record #999 or when a value is something specific so
that I can step throught the code to see what's going on.
In a case like this, using
Debug.Assert False
PAUSES the macro, just like a breakpoint.
Debug.Assert True passes through and does nothing.
What I've done on large macros is use a "BreakFlag", and:
Debug.Assert BreakFlag
whereever I need a breakpoint.
Then, when record # or value = what I'm looking for, I set BreakFlag = false.
Then, to continue without further breaks, simply set breakflag = true and run!
I use it a lot when I'm testing code for these user groups, then remove them
before posting.
Guess I missed one!
