Hi,

I need to execute macros dynamically, by reading the macro name from a macro variable.

Essentially i would want to do th ebelow

%(&macro_name);

where the macro name will be passed at run time to decide which macro to be executed.

Can this be done?

Yes, just lose the parentheses:

%&macro_name
