Why would a IF THEN result jump up to a prior line in the VBA code

Without providing an example.  I can get it later if needed.  If I have a For Next loop and within the For Next Loop I have an IF THEN statement.  For some reason when the IF Statement runs it jumps back to a prior line of code above the Loop to another IF THEN statement.  What would be a reason for this to occur. Note if I Debug-Compile no errors are found.   Realize this question may be difficult to evaluate without an example but I am not home yet...

I was hoping the question was obvious enough without an example to offer some suggestions to troubleshoot.

"The solutions and answers provided on Experts Exchange have been extremely helpful to me over the last few years. I wear a lot of hats - Developer, Database Administrator, Help Desk, etc., so I know a lot of things but not a lot about one thing. Experts Exchange gives me answers from people who do know a lot about one thing, in a easy to use platform." -Todd S.

Your Sub may be being called again (likely through a chain of other subs) by whatever is in the If/Then statement.

For example if you run Subc in this code, it will behave as you describe when x becomes 5.

Sub Suba()
    Call Subb
End Sub

Sub Subb()
    Call Subc
End Sub

Sub Subc()
    Dim X As Integer
    
    MsgBox "I'm here"
    For X = 1 To 10
        If X = 5 Then Call Suba
    Next
    
End Sub

Note that I added the "Call"s for the purposes of this example even though they aren't necessary.

When you get in front of your computer again, put a breakpoint on the If/Then line (or one of the lines) by clicking in the left-hand margin of one of those lines and then repeatedly press F8 to step through the code. For more help with debugging please see this article of mine.

Here is the partial code

***** FIRST BLOCK OF CODE *********
Sheets("My Sales").Select
For intR = 2 to Range ("A2").End(xlDown).Row
If Range ("J" & intR).Value = "Bad" THEN
 With Sheets ("My Sales")
  If .Range("C" & intR) = '' Then
     Exit For
  Else
  Range("A" & intR).EntireRow.Delete
  On Error GoTo NextBadLine
  Int R = int R-1
  End If
End With
NextBadLine

End If    'Jump line -  When the code runs and it gets to the code below (See "Problem Line" below) it jumps back up to this line
Next intR
IntR = 0

**** SECOND BLOCK OF CODE *******
With ActiveWorkbook
Set ws = .Worksheets ("People Data")
For intR = 2 to Range ("A2").End(xlDown).Row
   Set ws1 = .Worksheets ("Sales Data")
    For intZ = 2 to Range ("a2").End(xlDown).Row
    If Range ("F" & intR) & Range ("I" & intR) & Abs(Range("K" & intR)) = .Range("a"& intZ) & .Range ("E" & intZ) & .Range("F" & intZ) Then  'PROBLEM LINE - When IT GETS HERE it jumps up to the line I call above the "Jump line"
    .Range("A" & intZ).Value = "REVIEW"
   End IF
   Next intZ
Next intR
End With

  On Error GoTo NextBadLine

Open in new window

tells to jump to that line on error, but you never reset that setting. Probably an error is occuring, the On Error Goto executed, and there you are!
In general, you should either move the On Error to the line before going into the loop, and then reset it after the loop; or leave as-is and reset after the error handling label - but I cannot recommend that, setting On Error in a conditional statement is very bad style and prone to errors, as you can see here.

The On Error needs to be executed prior to the part you want to "protect". It sets up something used until you say otherwise (On Error Goto 0 to switch it off, for example).
