We had a alert created in Wf 7 version and we upgraded to 8.1.05. I am not able to open the alert or run it.
Do I need to create a new one?

Any idea?

Just a thought: relative path (WF7) vs full path (WF8).

Look that, you may need to create new one.

Yes.
I need to create new one.
It is not getting easy as it is throwing errors for -SET and -RUN's.

Any suggestions?

Edit your code in text editor, do not use the tool and post it here.
Going to be easier to help seeing it.

Or another option is to build a new Alert from scratch and compare (text editor) with the old one.
