MC-Basic:TRY ... END TRY
TRY…END TRY is used to trap synchronous errors. A synchronous error is one caused by the user task and detected by the interpreter. This type of error is associated with a specific line of program code in the user-defined task. Examples include division by zero and out of range parameters in a move command. The TRY block is used to take specific action with relation to a particular area of the program code. It may be used within an OnError or OnSystemError block.
Can catch user errors using .num property of User Error.
Syntax
Try ‘ Start of Try block
<code being Terminaled>
{Catch <Error Number X>
<code to execute when error X occurs> }
{Catch <MyError.num>
<code to execute when MyError occurs > }
{Catch Else
{code to catch allother errors} }
{Finally
<code to execute only if error occurred and was trapped> }
End Try ‘ End Try block

Limitations
Nesting of TRY blocks is allowed on condition that the nested TRY appears only within the Catch block. The GOTO instruction is allowed within a Catch section, but the referenced label must be within that section.
NOTE | |
If the catch clause throws itself again, it should not be caught by "Catch Else" or "Finally"instructions. |
Examples

program
try
' come code
catch 8001
' division by zero
catch appError1.num
Print "Application error"
