Hi Jay.

What you want to do is determine the error number returned, then trap for
that specific error (or others) in the try block.

With these features, you can direct the flow of your script based on the
error returned, giving you a finer control over the branching.

try
display dialog "Hello world"
on error errMsg number errNum
if errNum = -128 then display dialog "you clicked cancel"
end try


errMsg and errNum are variables here, so you can call them whatever you
wish. They are supplied a value when the error handler is called.
