Does anyone have an example of applescript syntax for catching multiple errors?

For example, catch errors if people chose to cancel, or if a file wasn't there, or the preference was changed, etc...

Nested if-then statements within a try block.

try
	display dialog "enter the file name" default answer "text.txt"
on error msg number num
	if num is -1 then
		--do something
	else if num is 25 then
		--do something else
	else if num is -128 then
		--do yet another thing
	end if
end try
