Exceptions
ExceptionDescription
One of the arguments provided to a method is not valid.
A null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) is passed to a method that does not accept it as a valid argument.
Remarks

We use the word "rename" and not "move", because in the simplified case, there are no namespaces, and there is no "move" then.
