Other than what people already said about the try…catch…finally block, I believe what you’re looking for is
try {
file = new FileStream("example.txt", FileMode.Open);
file.open();
}
catch (Exception ex) {
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
But you need to add reference to System.Windows.Forms in your project and add the using statement to your class
using System.Windows.Forms;
Or, if you just want to display the message in the console, you can use
Console.WriteLine(e.Message);
and forget the reference
