Interpreting an Interop error code using SQL-DMO

I have a VB.Net (1.1) that uses SQL-DMO via COM Interop to create a
linked server. The code throws an exception, as it should, when the
linked server I am trying to create already exists on the server. If I
were coding this directly in ADO.Net, then the excerption thrown would
be a SQLException which I could catch and read the errorcode, which
would tell me that the error is "linked server already exists".
However, the error thrown is a
System.Runtime. InteropServices .COMException with an errorcode of
-2147206476. Is it safe for me to assume that this error code is always
the same for a linked server already existing, or is this just a
generic COMexception error code?

Thanks,
Marcus

Hey all, I'm really going through a small hell right now - I've completely lost it :) I made a project, using two interop libraries from exchange (created them as in this msdn article: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnsmtps/html/writingmngsinks.asp). I set my project properties as 'Register as COM interop' to true, I can install it my project on my developement machine without a flaw. Great.
