Is it possible to turn off errors in macros???

I want to save a file to a thumb drive but depending on where you are,
Office or Home the drive location will be different. Office is x: and
Home is f:

I think the best way to accomplish what I need to do is to save the
file on both locations. When the macro runs it is going to error out on
one of the attempts to save but if I can some how turn off that function
it will automatically save. This way there is no need to ask the user if
he is at home or at work.

Again, my programming ability is limited to hacking existing code and
my searching the forums has not turned up anything like this.

Thanks again for your help with this. It is much appreciated.

On Error Resume Next

Insert this line at the beginning of your code.

This will work, but it will quash ALL errors ("Not enough space to save",
"Your computer is on fire", etc.), so use it with extreme caution.

On Error Resume Next

' You save code goes here

If Err.Number <> 0 Then
Err.Clear
End If

On Error GoTo 0

what is the purpose of the bottom 4 lines?

On Error GoTo 0 gives VBA back its error handling. Clearing the errors object
ensures that if there WAS an error generated by saving, it isn't flagged once
VBA is back in control.
