SELECT IN A TRY/CATCH ?

[ice789911]

Is it best practice to put a select statement inside a try catch block

BEGIN TRY
SELECT * from someTable
END TRY

BEGIN CATCH
--do something like log the error
END CATCH

On balance I think it is best to use a try/catch block because you should know if errors are randomly generated and this provides you with a means to log those errors
