Re: Catching Sql Expection and display in Textbox

Hi Maesto10,

Based on your requirement, I think you could modify your code like below:

try
{
    //Your code
}
catch(SqlException ex)
{
    MessageBox.Show("there was an issue!");
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
    MessageBox.Show("there was another issue!");
}

For more information, please refer to the following links:
