Well, actually I do. If there's any error, I want nothing done.
But my real point was that although there are 2 records in my source table with dataareaid = 'lil' and two with dataareaid = 'bol' I still get 4 times the 'lil' error message, while I was expecting 2 times the 'lil' error message and two times the 'bol' error message.

You probably don't want this trigger doing RETURN NULL; that's
turning all your inserts into no-ops.
