Mr. X.

In VB.NET there was Err.Number.
I see there is no Err.Number in C# ?

Can I resolve It somehow ?

Thanks :)

Err.Number was a holdover from VB6. Like all VB6 holdovers, you were
strongly discouraged from using it. In C# you simply CANNOT use it. Just
write more try/catch blocks if you're really interested in where an error
takes place.

In VB6 there was Err.Number, in VB.NET you can still
use Err.Number but you really should use Try Catch,
in C# you have try catch.

So your conversion problems seem to be somewhat caused
by the fact that the current VB.NET is not properly
..NET'ified.

Strictly speaking:

using Microsoft.VisualBasic;

and:

Information.Err().Number

does work in C#, but there a no point in it, because
one will need to catch the exceptions explicitly and
save the exception to make it available, so it is
less code to do it the C# way.
