What about trying a catch error handler? Something like this:

pro blah
CATCH, error_status
IF ( error_status NE 0 ) THEN BEGIN
CATCH, /CANCEL
MESSAGE, !ERROR_STATE.MSG, /CONTINUE
RETURN
ENDIF

....do other stuff....

end


If an error occurs in the "....do other stuff...." section, the error message will get printed out control will return
to the caller.

You can throw your own errors in the "....do other stuff...." section by doing something like

IF ( ...an error condition is detected... ) THEN $
MESSAGE, 'this is my own error message', /NONAME, /NOPRINT

when you detect an error in your own code.


cheers,
