Catch ex As Exception
           
            Dim messge = ex.Message.ToString() + strRpt + strRptType
            ''messge = messge + " :::" + ex.InnerException.ToString()
            Dim types As String = "(monthly report)"

            createErrorFileName(strRpt, types)
            ErrorLog(StartupName(), messge)
            '    MsgBox(messge)
            'Mail()
            'Return True
        Finally
            Timer1.Start()
            'Mail()

check the InnerException Property of Exception class
EG: if(ex.InnerException==SqlException)

You can catch any no of exceptions like this

  public void  showexception()
  {
    try
    {
      ----
      ----    //Code block 
      ---
    }

    catch (SqlException e)
     {
        Console.WriteLine("Sql exception" + ex);
     }
     catch (Exception ex)
     {
        Console.WriteLine("An exception occurred (Other type)" + ex);
     }

}
