Hi,

In a team environment, if I handle an exception (like so):

    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.exTest();

}


public void exTest()
{
    try
    {
        throw new Exception("sjsj");
    }

    catch (Exception ex)
    {
        string s = ex.Message;
        throw;
    }

}

What is the implication of not rethrowing the exception (throw)? Even without the keyword the custom error settings in web.config are used (redirection to specified page).

Thanks
