Hi Henry, I think that there is a big mistake in the initial concept:
even if you resolve the problem with your macro, when you first create you view that macro is immediately expanded and saved in the view in the already expanded form. The next time you use your view it is not parameterized like you instead expect. Probably you must use another approach.
