Unhandled Exceptions from Third-Party Applications

Hey everyone. I am developing a C# program that launches various third-party
applications (applications I do not have the source code to) with various
inputs. Some of those inputs could cause the third-party application to
crash. That is fine, except I do not want the Error Reporting Window that
Windows pops up to be seen by the user (I want to handle it myself). The
Error Reporting window I am talking about is the window that comes up and
asks if you want to send an error report to Microsoft. In Windows 2000, this
is the window that comes up saying that an error has occured and a log has
been generated. I realize that I could turn off Error Reporting and disable
the notification that errors have occured, but that is not something I really
want to do.

Is there anyway to handle unhandled exceptions from third-party applications
started with the Process object in such a way that the error reporting window
does not come up? I was looking at the UnhandledExcept ion event, but I am
not sure if that will do what I need it to.

I appreciate any help you can give me.

Thanks!

Hi All, How can you capture unhandled exceptions thrown by an MDI child form separate from the entire app? I have an application-wide exception handler to catch crashes by doing the following in my Application entry point: Public Shared Sub Main() 'Explicitly set apartment state to Single Thread Apartment (STA) System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.ApartmentState = System.Threading.ApartmentState.STA Dim eh As New MyExceptionHandler()

Hi All. I'm hoping someone can point me in the direction of a solution to unhandled exceptions in MDI child forms causing the application to crash. I've found various articles describing a method using Application.Run(new MyMainParentForm) to place in the application's Sub Main to allow catching of unhandled exceptions in the application. The problem I'm facing is that I want to be able to trap unhandled exceptions at the MDI child...

When I select Exceptions... from the Debug menu in VS .Net 2005, I am only seeing a "Break when exception is thrown" column of checkboxes.

I MUST be able to trap unhandled exceptions, bring the thread to a routine that then closes the thread on which the execption occurred without closing or affecting the other threads. Think of an Interactive voice response telephone application. An unforeseen error occurs on one phone call.

Hi, I've recently ported a .Net 1.1 application to .Net 2.0 and the one new feature that is getting on my nerves is that when there is an unhandled exception the application completely crashes, causing user to loose all the work they have done where they could previously just click continue and in 99% of cases be fine. Is there an option to turn this annoying crash and loose everything option off, I can see it has its merits but in my...
