Exception handling

[Jon]

Can someone point me to a best practices for exception handling in .Net 2?
We have a method that we like for ASP.Net apps on .Net 1.1, but are just
moving to 2.0 with winforms apps.

Is it still recommended to use the addHandler method in each form for
ApplicationThreadExceptions and then just handle everything else using
try/catch blocks and rethrow if the exception can't be handled?

Is it recommended to let all exceptions bubble up from base classes into the
application and handle them there?

Thank you
