Exception Error Codes in .NET

Question

Is there a list of .NET Exception error codes around?

I get these error codes with a couple of HttpExceptions,

0x80070040
0x800703E3

And require to know the difference between the two errors.

Those are not .NET Exception Error codes. They are Windows HRESULT codes.

0x80070040 is "The specified network name is no longer available."
0x800703E3 is "The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an application request."

You can find these by using Tools->Error Lookup in Visual Studio.

and, as it happens, these specific codes aren't even listed in the link I provide.

Thanks guys. Realise it was an easy question. But appreciated.

Here you go - these are in fact HRESULT error codes, which HttpException exposes.
