Hello all,

I want to handle the 'UnhandledException' in my application, but ir seems
not to work. My application is a control hosted by IE. In the control's
constructor, I have the following code

...
AddHandler System.Threading.Thread.GetDomain.UnhandledException, AddressOf
MyUnhandledExceptionEventHandler
...

I'm forcing a 'Division by zero' exception to test it, buy my method is
neved called. Anybody knows what am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Make sure you read the "Remarks" section:

.NET Framework Class Library -- 'DivideByZeroException' Class

In my test I use integer arithmetic, so I don't have a NaN value and the
exception is thrown.

In fact, the default window is shown on screen with the information of the
exception. That's the issue. My event handler doesn't execute and the
default screen appears, as I didn't defined the custom handler.

Thanks for all,
