Description
Currently if you mistype the name of a control in a Parameterized or Combination Test you get error 1055 Reference not Valid.
It would be nice to catch that and instead throw a different error with a different message so that it's clear that there is a typo.
The change needs to be made in the following image at ~ probe number 23, if the reference is not in the map, then skip the Ctl Value Set and generate an error with the appropriate message and include the name of the not found control and list the keys of the map in the error message, just to make it even clearer that there is a typo.

Research direction
Start at the image's probe number 23, where the issue says the control reference is checked against a map. Verify the behavior when the reference is absent, then make the error identify the missing control and list the map keys; done means mistyped controls produce the clearer error instead of error 1055.
