I think you're working too hard.  You should start with a newer template and use 1.51.03 features; things like declared subroutines.  

And if your goal is to read a sensor several times and get the average reading, you can do it like this:

[code]SUB ADC_IN
  FOR idx = 1 TO 4
    ANALOGIN InCPin, OutCPin, ctrRaw, 2         ' get raw sensor value
    ctrRaw = ctrRaw >> 2                        ' divide by 4
    ctrAvg = ctrAg + ctrRaw
  NEXT
  ENDSUB[/code]

The code above basically works like this routine, but without the extra accumulator variable:

[code]SUB ADC_IN
  ctrAcc = 0					' clear accumulator
  FOR idx = 1 TO 4
    ANALOGIN InCPin, OutCPin, ctrRaw, 2         ' get raw sensor value
    ctrAcc = ctrAcc + ctrRaw
  NEXT
  ctrAvg = ctrAcc / 4
  ENDSUB[/code]
