How to End Protected Sub within Try Catch

I have two Try....Catches inside of a Protected Sub.

Inside the second Try....Catch I would like to End the Protected Sub if an error occurs.

How would I be able to do this?

Thanks in advance for the help.

Try
                smtpClient.Send(message)
 
                Server.Transfer("confirm.aspx")
            Catch ex As Exception
                ' Display error message
                EmailProblemsLabel.Visible = True
                EmailProblemsLabel.Text = "You have successfully made change, but there was a problem sending the email."
            End Try

Below you will see the entire Protected Sub.

I have tried using End Sub and Return and nothing seems to help.

What is happening is that when it hits the second Catch "Catch ex As System.Net.Mail.SmtpException" it loops back through the Protected Sub doing a second update. Then after the database is updated for a second time it does what I am asking it to do in the second catch.

Thanks for any words of wisdom.

both of your suggestions should be correct. There must be something weird going on somewhere in the sub.
