thanx, I'm not really making my own classes but in my program, the program has to read alot of files and instead of crashing I would prefer to send out an error message describing the issue to help myself deal with supporting the software.

if you have no classes you have no application. :blink:

You also have an ACCESS DENIED BUG you need to address. Let me tell you this now, your DNote App doesn't work in a Domain Environment at all. To view this change your permissions from ADMINSTRATOR to USER and then your application will crash like a mofo.

Try this

Try
	File.Open("myfile.txttch ex As FileNotFoundException
	lblMessage.Text = "File not found"
End Try

thanx I finally found my answer in MSDN thought. Your code wasn't 100% correct.

Try

            FileOpen(1, skinChoice & "\readme.txt", OpenMode.Input)

            lblNoteInfo.Text = LineInput(1)

            Do Until EOF(1)

                lblNoteInfo.Text += vbCrLf & LineInput(1)

            Loop

            FileClose(1)

        Catch e As Exception

            lblNoteInfo.Text = "No Skin Information Available"

        End Try

Try

? ? ? ? ? ? FileOpen(1, skinChoice & "\readme.txt", OpenMode.Input)

? ? ? ? ? ? lblNoteInfo.Text = LineInput(1)

? ? ? ? ? ? Do Until EOF(1)

? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? lblNoteInfo.Text += vbCrLf & LineInput(1)

? ? ? ? ? ? Loop

? ? ? ? ? ? FileClose(1)

? ? ? ? Catch e As Exception

? ? ? ? ? ? lblNoteInfo.Text = "No Skin Information Available"

? ? ? ? End Try

actually, his code is correct and concise...

use this syntax for Try-Catch block

Try
 ?normal code
Catch exc1 As FirstException
 ?exception-handling code for FirstException
Catch exc2 As SecondException
 ?exception-handling code for SecondException
.
.
Catch
 ?exception-handling code for any remaining exceptions
Finally
 ?clean-up code
End Try

the only problem with his code was the FileOpen syntax

Try
 ? ? FileOpen(1, "\myfile.txt", OpenMode.Input)
Catch exp As IO.FileNotFoundException
 ? ? lblMessage.Text = "File not found"
End Try

and then you can change whatever in the Try block, i.e. do whatever you want with the file.

for example, you could use the Do Until EOF OR use a StreamReader and then use sr.peek way.

    • Windows 11 is getting a useful new audio feature by Taras Buria Photo: phamtu1509 Windows 11, in its current form, does not offer a quick and easy way to play audio over more than one device. If you have a bunch of audio devices connected and you want to play music on all of them, you have to tinker with third-party software to make it work. Apparently, Microsoft wants to change that with a new feature coming soon to Windows 11. @phantomofearth, the ever-giving source of Windows insights, discovered that the latest Windows 11 preview builds have a hidden toggle in quick settings that lets you share audio to multiple devices with just a few clicks. All it takes is clicking "Shared Audio" in the control center, selecting two or more available devices, and pressing "Share." As usual, there are no official announcements yet, so details about this feature remain unknown. Still, you can probably expect the new shared audio feature to make it to a Windows 11 preview build in the near future. In other Windows Insider news, Microsoft recently revealed that one of the recent taskbar changes was pulled from the operating system due to negative feedback. The company experimented with a simplified taskbar tray area, but later decided to nuke it because people did not like it. Still, there are plenty of other features coming soon to Windows 11. Check out our recent top 10 list here. Hopefully, all of them will make it to the Stable channel soon.
    • Chinese? It sounds extremely dangerous. I’ll reconsider buying a Meta Quest 3.
    • - What's your salary? Is it more than $100k a year? - Nah, it's $100 mil a year.
    • Compared to my ear buds which are the size of a matchbox, cover a much broader frequency range, and work everywhere without setup? Yeah, still not buying this as a replacement.
    • Meta's Superintelligence team staffed by 50% Chinese talent, 40% ex-OpenAI by Hamid Ganji Mark Zuckerberg's latest big bet at Meta involves building a team of the best AI superstars in the market to lead the so-called Superintelligence Labs. The goal of this team is to develop AI models that will ultimately lead to Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). AGI refers to an AI model with capabilities comparable to, or even beyond, those of the human brain. Achieving human-level cognitive abilities with an AI model requires substantial investments, as well as hiring the best talent to build such a system. That's why Meta is throwing hundreds of millions of dollars at AI researchers from OpenAI, Apple, and other companies to recruit them for its Superintelligence team. A user on X has now shared a spreadsheet that provides us with some unique insights into Meta's Superintelligence team and the origins of its 44 employees. The leaker claims this information comes from an anonymous Meta employee. The listing claims that 50 percent of the staff at the Superintelligence team are from China, which demonstrates the significant role of Chinese or Chinese-origin researchers in Met's AI efforts. Additionally, 75 percent of these staff hold PhDs, and 70 percent of them work as researchers. Interestingly, 40 percent of the staff are ex-OpenAI employees whom Mark Zuckerberg poached from the maker of ChatGPT. Additionally, 20 percent of Meta's Superintelligence team members come from Google DeepMind, and another 15 percent come from Scale AI, a startup that Meta recently acquired in a $15 billion deal. Another interesting point is that 75 percent of the Superintelligence team are first-generation immigrants. The leaker claims that each of these employees is now earning between $10 million and $100 million per year, although Meta still needs to confirm these substantial figures. However, it has already been reported that Meta is offering up to $100 million in signup bonuses to poach the best AI talent from OpenAI and other rivals. The revelation that half of Meta's Superintelligence team consists of Chinese nationals could trigger concerns within the Trump administration and Congress.
