The macro works for me with the TBUDL/TBBETA lists and elsewhere so I
strongly suspect that it's a problem with the macro's syntax when
you're using it.

Are you using the macro recursively? If so, you have to alter those
quotation marks.

For example, for the %quotestyle macro, you'd have to do something
like:

%Quotestyle="=%ABofromHANDLE=""%ABofromFIRSTNAME=""""%OFROMFNAME"""""

or

%Quotestyle='=%ABofromHANDLE="%ABofromFIRSTNAME=""%OFROMFNAME""'


If you're recursively using it within say the %Wrapped macro or any
other macro then you need to use it in this format:

%Wrapped="%ABofromHANDLE=""%ABofromFIRSTNAME=""""%OFROMFNAME"""""

or

%Wrapped='%ABofromHANDLE="%ABofromFIRSTNAME=""%OFROMFNAME""'


Here's a sample introductory template:

<template>

%Wrapped='On %ODOW, %ODATE,
%ABofromHANDLE="%ABofromFIRSTNAME=""%OFROMFNAME"" wrote these
comments:'

</template>

The above should be as a single line but the syntax for the included
%Ab macro is really what counts.

Hope that helps. If not, I'll be away for a couple days so I hope
someone else can continue this.
