To the novice DBA this definitely looks like something that would benefit our developers and to help a DBA get their feet wet with try/catch phrases. However, as a novice, I was unable to determine from the article just how something like this is actually implemented. I realize that this article is probably targeted toward more advanced DBAs/Developers but a short paragraph at the end of the article to help junior DBAs (and non programmers) understand how to get started with this would be excellent. Thanks!
