I am looking for suggestions on how to make better reporting of invalid entries back to the UI tier?
For example, say user enters a duplicate value (where duplicate is not allowed). What I get from the SQL Server as an error message, is the following:
Failed updating record in MyTable
Cannot insert duplicate key row in object 'dbo.MyTable' with
unique index 'IX_MyKey'
I would like to make the message simpler for the end user to understand.
Any suggestions would by greatly appreciated.
