I guess I thought all variable identifiers *had* to be strings.

Probably.  I no longer remember what I wrote!

I understand the logic of all you explained -- it helped me to re-examine
your code.  THEN,
I finally realized, as the cranial density began to lessen, that "Steps"
didn't *have* to have a value pre-assigned to it *until the macro was
actually called*.
As I looked farther down your code, I saw:
Stairs (S) (after S was declared to = 8)
then
Stairs (4), then
Stairs (8)

At that point the fog { } began to lift. :-)  THanks!

P. S. You're a very patient person.  Are you a teacher, by any chance?
Perhaps you should be!
