You can add:

$ON ERROR THEN GOTO label

Before a command you suspect could generate errors.

The "ON" command is not permanent. Once it has been triggfered by an
error, you need to re-issue the command.

Another possibility is $SET NOON which causes the DCL file to continue
executing even if it encounters errors.
