[ExcelVBA] Filter Choice Macro

 

I have this macro that I've pieced together to filter on two columns. Column C is the numeric month and Column A is the numeric Year. The macro supposed to let the user enter a month first, then a year and have the resulting rows of filtered information deleted. This think works to catch invalid entries only to a point and I'm not sure what I have wrong.

For example if I enter month 2 for the month and year 11 for the year and the spreadsheet doesn't contain any data for the year 2011, then I get a message box with an option to start over. If I take the start over option, the second time around the macro gets hung up at the line that starts with "40 Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(ActiveSheet...". It gives me the "Run-time error '1004': ... No cells were found." message.

Hopefully, someone can have a look and tell me what I have wrong here. Thanks, Steve

My code is below:

Sub FilterChoice()
Dim Resp As Long
Dim Ans1
Dim Ans2

20 Ans1 = InputBox("Enter month to remove (Enter 1 thru 12.)")
If Ans1 >= 1 And Ans1 <= 12 Then


Selection.AutoFilter
ActiveSheet.Range("$C$1:$C$10001").AutoFilter Field:=3, Criteria1:=Ans1


GoTo 30
Else
If Ans1 <> "" Then
MsgBox "Sorry you entered an invalid month number! Please enter a value between 1 and 12."
GoTo 20

End If

End If



30 Ans2 = InputBox("Enter year to remove (Enter 00 thru 99.)")
If Ans2 >= 0 And Ans2 <= 100 Then


On Error GoTo Error

ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$A$10001").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=Ans2



GoTo 40



Else
If Ans2 <> "" Then
MsgBox "Sorry you entered an invalid year number! Please enter a value between 00 and 99."
GoTo 30
End If

End If




40 Range(Cells(2, 1), Cells(ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Rows.Count, 1)).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).EntireRow.Delete

Selection.AutoFilter

Error:

Selection.AutoFilter

Resp = MsgBox(prompt:="No data was found with the year that was provided. Try again?", Buttons:=vbYesNo)

If Resp = vbYes Then

GoTo 20

Else

End If

If Resp = vbNo Then

End If

Exit Sub

End Sub
