How do I get SQL server 2008r2 to show me the Errors?

Question

I am running an Insert script that is supposed to insert 13,381 rows into a blank DB from SSMS. Its telling my "Query completed with errors" and is only inserting 13357 rows.

Nothing is showing up in the Error list. How do I locate the mistakes in the script?

Thank you!

try this:

begin try

    --your inserts here

end try
begin catch
    --returns the complete original error message as a result set
    SELECT 
        ERROR_NUMBER() AS ErrorNumber
        ,ERROR_SEVERITY() AS ErrorSeverity
        ,ERROR_STATE() AS ErrorState
        ,ERROR_PROCEDURE() AS ErrorProcedure
        ,ERROR_LINE() AS ErrorLine
        ,ERROR_MESSAGE() AS ErrorMessage

    --will return the complete original error message as an error message
    DECLARE @ErrorMessage nvarchar(400), @ErrorNumber int, @ErrorSeverity int, @ErrorState int, @ErrorLine int
    SELECT @ErrorMessage = N'Error %d, Line %d, Message: '+ERROR_MESSAGE(),@ErrorNumber = ERROR_NUMBER(),@ErrorSeverity = ERROR_SEVERITY(),@ErrorState = ERROR_STATE(),@ErrorLine = ERROR_LINE()
    RAISERROR (@ErrorMessage, @ErrorSeverity, @ErrorState, @ErrorNumber,@ErrorLine)
end catch
