If ((Cells(i, 18).Value > 0) And (Trim(Cells(i, 3).Value) <> "") And (Trim(Cells(i, 4).Value) <> "")) And (Trim(Cells(i, 10).Value) <> "") _
         Then ' Do something

    Take a look at the ERROR.TYPE() worksheet function. This will return 5 is the error is #NAME.

    If B1 contains your #NAME error, then the following would return 5:

    =ERROR.TYPE(TEXT(B1,""))
