guy,
Depending on the type of application you are creating, .NET has three
different global exception handlers.
For ASP.NET look at:
System.Web.Http Application.Err or event
Normally placed in your Global.asax file.
For console applications look at:
System.AppDomai n.UnhandledExce ption event
Use AddHandler in your Sub Main.
For Windows Forms look at:
System.Windows. Forms.Applicati on.ThreadExcept ion event
Use AddHandler in your Sub Main.
It can be beneficial to combine the above global handlers in your app, as
well as wrap your Sub Main in a try catch itself.
There is an article in the June 2004 MSDN Magazine that shows how to
implement the global exception handling in .NET that explains why & when you
use multiple of the above handlers...
http://msdn.microsoft.com/msdnmag/is...T/default.aspx
For example: In my Windows Forms apps I would have a handler attached to the
Application.Thr eadException event, plus a Try/Catch in my Main. The
Try/Catch in Main only catches exceptions if the constructor of the MainForm
raises an exception, the Application.Thr eadException handler will catch all
uncaught exceptions from any form/control event handlers.
Hope this helps

In my application I have an event handler to catch unhandled exceptions,
as
per the MSDN documentation, however when an unhandled exception is thrown
I
get the Dialogue first, then the event handler catches the exception. How
do
I supress the dialogue?
