Here is the part of the code giving me the error:

h =1;

SiO2_thick_range = [.5e-6, 2e-6];

SiO2_thick_max = SiO2_thick_range(2);

SiO2_thick_min = SiO2_thick_range(1);

SiO2_thick_diff = SiO2_thick_max - SiO2_thick_min;

SiO2_thick = SiO2_thick_min +0.1*h*SiO2_thick_diff;

electrode_thick = 0.1e-6;  

sidewall = SiO2_thick - 2*electrode_thick;

  z_center_point = electrode_thick + sidewall/2;

  set("left sidewall","z",z_center_point); #THIS IS THE LINE THAT GIVES THE ERROR

I'm really confused why I'm getting this error since z_center_point = 0.325 and sidewall = 0.45. So the problem is not negative values. I tried entering these values directly into the edit window and it worked fine. I need to get this to work in the code though.

I FIXED THIS

My problem was that I had forgotten to use "setnamed" insteat of "set" (*facepalm*). This Is fixed now.

You are right that "set" is used when an object is selected, no need to mention its name. Whereas "setnamed" will specify the object name.
