Did you specify whether it was numeric or string? I haven't got that error before, but I'm just guessing by the title. Or did you try to set a variable, but forgot to tell quest what kind of variable you are trying to set?

As Tyrant says, you need to specify "numeric" or "string" when setting the variable for the first time. The error message is odd though - it looks like you've used:
set <>
which is a little strange. Perhaps Quest isn't reporting the error correctly.
