Checking @@TRANCOUNT in a TRY...CATCH construct

The owner of account 10 has won a raffle and will be awarded $200. You prepare a simple script to add those $200 to the current_balance of account 10. You think you have written everything correctly, but you prefer to check your code.

In fact, you made a silly mistake when adding the money: SET current_balance = 'current_balance' + 200. You wrote 'current_balance' as a string, which generates an error.

The script you create should rollback every change if an error occurs, checking if there is an open transaction. If everything goes correctly, the transaction should be committed, also checking if there is an open transaction.
