It works the opposite way. A catch can allow the program to continue executing when there is an error. Go to this site and read up:

displaying a stacktrace
not displaying a stacktrace
giving an error message (popup)

hmmm.. so what statement should I use? coz i'm trying to stop the execution of code when an error occurs

The exception will stop the execution of code at the point of the error.
The catch will "catch" the execution and allow the program to continue executing in the catch block's code.
