  Global variable changed by Macro without parameters?

This is what I'm trying to do:
I want global variables, that are affected
by macros, without handing the variables
as parameters to the macro.
To do this, I #declare a variable with
the same name as the global, thus hoping to
overwrite it. Does that work?

I'd think that #declare is global in scope,
and would overwrite another variable with the
same name, but it doesn't seem to do that. I
can't make any other sense from the docs, unless
I've misinterpreted something.

I could cook some sample-scene for this, but
in this case, someone might have an answer for
that just on the fly...
