Handling COMException

[Sidrp]

I am working on an ASP.net application that is communicating with a COM Object. When ever the COM Object errors out I am catching the error and throwing it to fiannaly handle in Application_ONError. The problem is once the error is raised beyond the routine where it was causd, the Error thrown becomes a COMException and the message is "Unspecified Error",I tried creating a custom error object and throwing thatwith predefind error messages, but no luck. Anyone has any ideas on how I could show some meaningful information from such errors.
thanks
Sid

Are you using the GetBaseException method?
