[2005] Throw Exception From Web Service

Hello,

I have a problem in as much as my message that is being thrown from my class, to my webservice, to my application isn't showing in the friendly format - it is showing a large box with things like system.web.services.protocols.soapexception.......

It does contain the text of my error, but I need it to look nice to the users.

My code is as follows :

Class

Code:

---

Try
IF
  Do stuff...
Else
  Throw New System.Exception("An Employee with this Reference already exists!")
End If

Catch ex As Exception
  Throw ex
End Try

---

WebService

Code:

---

Try
  Call Class.....
Catch ex As Exception
  Throw ex
End Try

---

Application

Code:

---

Try
  Do Stuff......
Catch ex As Exception
  MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
End Try

---

Can anyone help please ?

Can you please post the exact error message? I think that the problem maybe that you are not passing the correct SOAP message to or from the web service. Either types or names are different.

Sure - the message is attached:

I've tried putting a watch on "ex" and in the class it simply shows as "An Employee with this Reference already exists!"

In the Webservice is simply shows as "An Employee with this Reference already exists!"

But on my application's form it shows as per the screenshot and I've no idea why.

Hi vbud,

I've had a look for details relating to passing SOAP Messages, but haven't really found anything useful.
