How can SMO retrieve the SQL messages from ExecuteNonQuery(SQLFile)

Question

I have a vb.net app that uses SMO to execute SQL files with the ExecuteNonQuery(SQLFile). The ExecuteNonQuery(SQLFile) is in a TRY CATCH and I catch SQLException, SMOException, and general Exception. When my SQL file has an error, such as a table name that
does not exists, it throws a general Exception and the message is "An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch." I want the message that would be shown on the Messages pane in SSMS "Msg 2812, Level 16, State 62, Line
2. Could not find stored procedure 'ifs_RunHistoryInsertv2x'."
How can I get the Msg from SQL returned to SMO so that I can show is in a messagebox?

How could I do something like this in Powershell?
I've tried something like this:
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.SqlServer.SMO') | out-null
# Create SMO Server Object
$Server = New-Object ('Microsoft.SQLServer.Management.Smo.Server') "SD-KP-DEVSUP01\KP"
#AddHandler $Server.ConnectionContext.InfoMessage, New SqlInfoMessageEventHandler(AddressOf OnInfoMessage)
$db = $Server.Databases["master"]
try {
$db.ExecuteWithResults("SELECT name from sys.databases2").Tables[0]
catch [Exception] {
$_.Exception|fl -Force
#[SqlException]$se=$_.Exception.InnerException
and I get this Error:
SmoExceptionType : FailedOperationException
Operation : Execute with results
FailedObject : [master]
Message : Execute with results failed for Database 'master'.

I've looked at all the items in $_ and $Error[0] but can't find any reference to what actual script line failed.
I really want to do output something like this to get more details where the error happened in a big script file.
Console.WriteLine("Msg {0}, Level {1}, State {2}, Line {3}", e.Number, e.Class, e.State, e.LineNumber)
