custom exception in VB.NET.
Creating Custom Exceptions:
VB.NET define your own custom exceptions to
identify the occurrence of unexpected events in your code.exceptions are
implemented in VB.Net as classes and objects.

Inherits Exception
Public Overrides ReadOnly Property
Message() As String
Get
Return "Sorry! Not
Engouh Balance"
End Get
End Property
End Class
Class Customer
Private name As String
Private balance As Integer
Public Sub New(ByVal name
As String,
ByVal opamt As Integer)
Me.name = name
Me.balance = opamt
End Sub
Public Sub
Deposit(ByVal amount As Integer)
balance +=
amount
End Sub
Public Sub
Withdraw(ByVal amount
As Integer)
If amount > balance
Then
Throw New NotEnoughBalanceException()
End If
balance -=
amount
End Sub
Public Sub
ShowBalance()
Console.WriteLine("Balance
of {0} is {1}", name, balance)
End Sub
End Class
Class ExpTest
Public Shared Sub Main()
Dim c As New Customer("Amit",
5000)
Try
c.Deposit(4000)
c.ShowBalance()
c.Withdraw(20000)
