You need to invoke it differently. Like: \define myothermacro(gddayeh) $gddayeh$ \end
\define mymacro() <$set name="result" value="Hi Bob"> <$macrocall $name=myothermacro gddayeh=<<result>> /> </$set> \end <<mymacro>> To pass the value of the variable (BTW, I'm probably using the wrong term here) you need to pass it inside a widget (or at least that's how I understand it). The widget that runs macros is <$macrocall>. Note that the name of the macro is passed inside a dollar-variable ($name) and not "name". This is one of the inconsistencies that will drive you nuts. Basically, macros, variables, parameters, arguments in TW5 aren't like anything you will see anywhere else. So don't feel bad if takes a while to make sense of it all.
