No Timer Named - mystery

Here is my wonderful program exactly as I have pasted it into aquanotes. When I select 'Update' I get

Line Number: 1 -> If Time > 00:00 Then ALM& OFF
No timer named ALM&

hmmm. After about 10 attempts, retyping, changing symbols and even control modules, I decided to delete all the ALM& entries so I could get this controlling my tank. I selected 'Update' again and it said

Line Number: 1 -> If Time > 00:00 Then SKM% ON
No timer named SKM%

Alright. I can see where this is going. OK, I give up. What's the secret???

Here's exactly what I pasted in the Timer Names window...

CHL%-A1
HTR%-A2
SKM%-A3
TOP%-A4
CO2%-B1
PCA$-B2
PF1$-B3
PLB$-B4
PCH$-B5
PTL$-B6
PTR$-B7
LMO&-C1
LVH&-C2
LHC&-C3
LHS&-C4
LF1&-C5
LF2&-C6
ALM&-C8

Here's exactly what I pasted into the Program window...

If Time > 00:00 Then ALM& OFF
If Time > 00:00 Then SKM% ON
If Time > 00:00 Then PCA$ ON
If Time > 00:00 Then PF1$ ON
If Time > 00:00 Then PLB$ ON
If Time > 00:00 Then PCH$ ON
If Time > 00:00 Then PTL$ ON
If Time > 00:00 Then PRT$ ON
If Moon 000/000 Then LMO& ON; all moon lighting ON at moonrise and OFF at moonset
If Sun 000/090 Then LVH& ON; main VHO lighting ON at sunrise and OFF at sunset+90 in Main
If Sun 060/000 Then LHC& ON; center halide ON 90 min after sunrise and OFF at sunset.
If Sun 120/-90 Then LHS& ON; side halides ON 120 min after sunrise and OFF 90 min before sunset
If Sun 000/000 Then LF1& ON; feature tank 1 halide on at sunrise and OFF at sunset
If Sun 000/000 Then LF2& ON; feature tank 2 VHO on at sunrise and OFF at sunset
If Temp > 77.8 Then CHL% ON; chiller ON if temp > 77.8
If Temp < 77.5 Then CHL% OFF; chiller OFF below 77.5
If Temp < 77.2 Then HET% ON; heater ON below 77.2
If Temp > 77.5 then HET% OFF; heater OFF if temp > then 77.5
If Temp > 79.0 Then LHS& OFF; side halides off it temp >79
Max Change 015 M Then LHS& OFF; allow 15 minutes to pass before retesting condition
If Temp > 79.5 Then LHC& OFF; center halide lighting OFF if tank temp exceeds 79.0
Max Change 015 M Then LHC& OFF; allow 15 minutes to pass before retesting condition
If Temp > 79.5 Then LVH& OFF; main tank VHO off it temp >79.5
Max Change 015 M Then LVH& OFF; allow 15 minutes to pass before retesting condition
If Temp > 79.5 Then LF1& OFF; feature tank 1 halide off if temp >79.5
Max Change 015 M Then LF1& OFF; allow 15 minutes to pass before retesting condition
If Temp > 79.5 Then LF2& OFF; feature tank 2 VHO off it temp >79.5
Max Change 015 M Then LF2& OFF; allow 15 minutes to pass before retesting condition
If Temp > 79.3 Then ALM& ON; Alarm if temp exceeds 79.3
If Temp < 76.0 Then ALM& ON
If Temp < 50.0 Then HTR OFF; turns heater off if temp probe malfunctions
If Temp < 50.0 Then LVH& OFF
If Temp < 50.0 Then LHC& OFF
If Temp < 50.0 Then LHS& OFF
If Temp < 50.0 Then LF1& OFF
If Temp < 50.0 Then LF2& OFF
If Feed cycle Then SKM% OFF; skimmer off while feeding
If Feed cycle Then PFT$ OFF; feature tank pump off while feeding
If Feed cycle Then PLB$ OFF; bottom closed loop off while feeding
If Feed cycle Then CO2% OFF; CO2 off while feeding
If Feed cycle Then PCA% OFF; calcium reactor off while feeding
If Feed cycle Then TOP% OFF; topoff off while feeding
If Feed cycle Then HTR% OFF; heater off while feeding
If Power Fail the ALM& ON
If pH > 8.50 Then ALM& ON
If pH < 7.85 Then ALM& ON
If ORP > 450 Then ALM& ON
If ORP < 300 Then ALM& ON
 
The problem is that you dont put the symbols into the program.. example you have If Time > 00:00 Then ALM& OFF, it should be If Time > 00:00 Then ALM OFF

LOL...I can't believe I missed that. Well thanks for making an obvious thing even more obvious. :D Mystery solved :cool:
