Try Catch -- how to resume??

Coming from VB6 to VB.NET, it appears if I opt to use the Try Catch approach
I don't have any way to RESUME from within my catch statement?

What I often do is resolve the problem in my catch statement and then I want
to resume at either the same statement that triggered the error or the
following statement. Perhaps I should not be using Try...Catch approach?

Any suggestions?

Thanks, Rob

u can use GOTO statement, not advising you to do so though.

I thought GOTO was removed from VB.NET?? Thanks for the suggestion, but
GOTO is something I want to avoid as much as possible.

.... and you can still use unstructured exception handling.

Hi Kovan.....

NOOOooooo..... not goto :(

*ahem*

Hi Rob,

To reolve this, you'll have to place a Try..Catch block around the offensive
line...

Try

Foo()
Bar()

Try
Baz()
Catch ex As Exception
' Blah
End Try

Moo()
Goo()

Catch ex As Exception
' Blah
End Try

Using the old-style error-trapping... i.e. On Error Resume Next is bad
because it's unstructured. Try...Catch...F inally is structured exception
handling and performs better in the managed world.

Structured and Unstructured exception handling can *not* be mixed.

Tom,

Thanks, I see what you're saying -- will take some restructuring to my
approach. It is hard to undo VB6 habits as they continue to
influence my .NET code.

Rob.

Hello All, Although, I have read all the advantages of using Try Catch Block instead of "On error goto", I am still confused what is alternative for classic "Resume" statement. "Resume" was one of the crucial line in debugging which let VB programmers go to exact line where error was thrown. I still use on error goto instead of try catch since, I want "Resume" for debugging. Is there any alternative like Resume in VB.net for Try

I found on error resume next doesn't work in for each... e.g. on error resume next for each x in y 'do stuff next if you have an error in for each loop, it falls in infinite loop... it doesn't move to next element... this sad thing but, it's indication that we must move to try catch instead of on error.

In VB6 I can use Resume Next to execute the line of coding following the line that cause an exception. There doesn't appear to be anything similiar when using Try...Catch -- so how can one resume the next statement when an error can be ignored? Thanks, Rob.
