I have the following lines of code:

FileInfo dbFile = new FileInfo(fileName);
dbFileSize = (long)dbFile.Length / 1024;//KB

There are 8 possible exceptions from new FileInfo(fileName) and dbFile.Length calls. I cannot just ignore them. I have to catch them.

What you are going to do with those 8 exceptions? Catch them separately (too many lines)? Catch only ONE by catching the super Exception excepton? or ...
