Name
FormatException
Synopsis
This exception signals that an error occurred during the handling of a
format string. Format strings are used by methods such as
Console.WriteLine()
to replace a format
specification with one or more parameters. This exception
may be triggered by supplying too few arguments to replace
all the format strings (for example, supplying only two arguments
to Console.WriteLine()
when your format
string is "{0} {1} {2}"
).
See Appendix B for more information on
format strings.
