Example

This example uses the Resume statement to end error handling in a procedure, and then resume execution with the statement that caused the error. Error number 55 is generated to illustrate using the Resume statement. 

Sub ResumeStatementDemo() On Error GoTo ErrorHandler ' Enable error-handling routine. Open "TESTFILE" For Output As #1 ' Open file for output. Kill "TESTFILE" ' Attempt to delete open file. Exit Sub ' Exit Sub to avoid error handler. ErrorHandler: ' Error-handling routine. Select Case Err.Number ' Evaluate error number. Case 55 ' "File already open" error. Close #1 ' Close open file. Case Else ' Handle other situations here.... End Select Resume ' Resume execution at same line ' that caused the error. End Sub
