Error Handling in vb.net 1

[Ajb2528]

I dont know wether this has been asked before but...

In VB6 you could retrieve the error number and the error description and also the line number where the error occurred. In vb.net I cannot find a way of duplicating this functionality. Has anyone managed to reproduce this or something similar in vb.net?

Any help will be appreciated!

Regards,

You should trap your errors in a Try block, then you can easily get the error details through the error exception such as this:

Try
Code here...
Catch ex As Exception
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message & vbCrLf & ex.StackTrace & vbCrLf & ex.GetType.ToString)
End Try
