application error in global.asax

In AS{.NET 2.0 with C# I have an errorpage and in global.asax I added to Application_Error to print the error in an errorpage I defined.
I have some problems:
first I have to run the application in the mode without debugging otherwise it get to the application error all the time.
second if I run without the debugging not all the errors are catched.
How does tthis function work?

void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
try
{
Server.Transfer("~/ExceptionPage.aspx", false);
}
catch { ;}
}

and in exceptionpage.aspx.cs page_load

if (ex != null)
{
//
}

Hi nisarkhan,
What do you mean by
if (ex != null)
{
//
}
where ex comes from?

What is the difference and what is prefered between
System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("ErrorPage.aspx");
