Does anyone have advice about ways to obtain information about errors
that occur in Windows Forms applications at a user site?  I am
currently sending exception.ToString back to me.  I am not
distributing the .pdb files for size reasons so I do not get line
numbers in the stack trace.  I have researched mini-dumps but have not
been able to find a good solution for using mini-dumps in a fully
managed application.

I would appreciate any advice or links to information.

One small piece of advise. Instead of sending exception.ToString(), it
would be helpful to you if you sent exception.StakTrace, that will give
you more contextual info.

You can look at these two solutions for Logging, they might be of help

Exception Management Application Block

Log4Net, open source logging library
