How can I exit my UNIX script when my PLSQL script in it calls an error?

Question

hello.
I hope someone can help with my error handling and exiting-in-the-right-place problem.
I have several PLSQL scripts that are called from a UNIX script to insert/update employee records in ORACLE Financials.
At the end of the UNIX script, depending on whether an entry has been created in the errors table should depend on whether the UNIX script stops or not. Trouble is, its stopping too early everytime even though the the record has been inserted correctly. Please can someone either advise on what I'm doing wrong or suggest an alternative..
This the end of the PLSQL script that inserts the entry into errors table if theres an error..
WHEN OTHERS    THEN       ROLLBACK;
      err_msg := SUBSTR (SQLERRM, 1, 350);
      insert into kpmg_error_check (concurrent_id,module,narrative,status,creation_date,created_by)
                            values(0,'TEMPLOYEE_DTLS.sql',err_msg,'ERROR',SYSDATE,'Feldman');
     commit; This is the end of the UNIX script that looks at the table..
echo " "
echo "**** `date +%H:%M:%S` - Checking if TEMPLOYEE_DTLS.sql ran OK"
error_check=`sqlplus -s $user_id @$SU_TOP/sql/SUTEMPCHK.sql 1`
if `echo $error_check` -ge 1
then
# Load failed
echo " "
echo "**** `date +%H:%M:%S` - TEMPLOYEE_DTLS has failed - check table KPMG_ERROR_CHECK for details.."
exit 1
else
# Load finished OK, if input data file exists, move and rename it
echo " "
echo "**** `date +%H:%M:%S` - TEMPLOYEE_DTLS has finished OK.."
fiThis is the entire SUTEMPCHK.sql script that the UNIX script uses..
-- Check if any errors have occurred
SELECT count(1) FROM kpmg_error_check WHERE concurrent_id = &1
EXITIs it that the above is always returning '1' and so always thinks theres an entry in the errors table?
Is there an easier way?
many thanks,
Steven

Hi,
You have to iterate through all pages.marginPreferences:
var
  myDocument = app.activeDocument,
  allPagesMaPref = myDocument.pages.everyItem().marginPreferences,
  curPageMaPref;
while ( curPageMaPref = allPagesMaPref.pop() )
  with (curPageMaPref) {
  columnCount = 1;
  //columnGutter can be a number or a measurement string.
  columnGutter = "0";
  bottom = "0"
  //When document.documentPreferences.facingPages == true,
  //"left" means inside; "right" means outside.
  left = "40"
  right = "0"
  top = "0"
  inside = "0"
