Remove repeated multiple nested inner exceptions

Question

Hey, using such code:

Try
...connect to some remote server...
Catch Exception As Exception
MsgBox(Exception.Message)
End Try

Can throw different exceptions, but in some cases, repeated multiple nested inner exceptions will throw like this:

IOException occurred during SSL negotiation. InnerException message follows: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. InnerException message follows: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host InnerException message follows: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host

I have the same inner exception 3 times with the same message text! This it not very usual, but how can I filter the repeated ones? The message text can be very different so can't use string manipulation.

Any help please? :)
Thanks in advance.

Hi @OSVBNET ,
If you just want to get non-repeated error information, you can choose to split the string by '.', and then remove the repeated part from the whole.
I think the first error message should always be surrounded by '.'.
