Remarks

This constructor initializes the Message property of the new instance to a system-supplied message that describes the error, such as "Nonnegative number required." This message takes into account the current system culture.

This constructor initializes the ParamName property of the new instance using the paramName parameter. The content of paramName is intended to be understood by humans.

The following table shows the initial property values for an instance of ArgumentOutOfRangeException.

Property	Value
InnerException	A null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).
Message	The empty string ("").
ParamName	The parameter name string.
