The syntax for the try construction is

try
   <command here>
catch tError
   <other commands here>
end try

and the error number is put into the variable tError. So the <other commands> 
could be, eg,

   if tError = 314 then
      answer "range error in loading array"
   else if ...
      etc.
   end if
