SUMMARY
The forum discussion addresses a problem in RSLogix 5000 where the variable Mytagno does not update as expected when assigned the value of I/Omoduletagno. The issue arises from the use of the character "/" in the variable name I/Omoduletagno, which is not permitted in RSLogix 5000 variable naming conventions. The compiler interprets the name incorrectly, leading to the failure of the assignment. Suggested solutions include renaming the variable to IOModuleTagNo or I_O_ModuleTagNo to comply with naming rules.
