This MSDN link may help you. Just add a secondary XML data source to your form, and have a node in it that you set to your error message. Display the node on the form when it has a value. Add some logic to clear the error -- maybe an "OK" button on the form or something.

Well, you could set a field in a secondary data source to the ex.message and if that field was mapped to the view, it would show the error message.

How can we show custom erro message in infopath 2007 with browser based forms....

as we have in 2003 infopath like below

try{
if(XDocument.Errors.length!=0) // analyse are there some errors in the form
{ //show the message of the first error in the form
    XDocument.UI.Alert(XDocument.Errors.Item(0).DetailedErrorMessage);
}
else
{ //submit the form to a database
    XDocument.Submit();
}
}
catch(ex)
{
    XDocument.UI.Alert(ex.message);
}
