I am trying to create a table with the above variable name.. I have declared the variable name in another statement.. but it's giving me an error.

 

ERROR: User does not have appropriate authorization level for library WC000001.

Does this work when not using the a macro var in the name, the error indicates and issue with Library permissions not the table name... 

 

Also what is the value of the macrovar when you get the issue?

I found the issue.. the variable name had a special character in it
