Up to now when ever I wanted to Show the Exception thrown from my code I used:

 try  {   /////Code that  may throws several types of Exceptions  }   catch (Exception ex)  {   MessageBox.Show(ex.ToString());  } 

I used the above code mainly for debugging reasons, in order to see the exact type of exception and the according reason the exception was thrown.

In a project I am creating now, I use several try-catch clauses and I would like to display a pop up Message in case of an Exception that it would be "User friendly".

  By "User friendly", I mean a Message that would hide phrases like: "Null Reference Exception" or "Argument Out of Range Exception" that are currently displayed with the above code. However I want, still the message to so relevant info with the type of Exception that created the message.

Is there a way to format the displayed output of thrown exceptions according to previous needs?
