The problem of scripts is that all users need the script on the hard disk
(if you consider the use of the macro in a network). And so you need to look
for the file scripts etc...That is why I prefer that my macro defines itself
the function, like you proposed in the alternative solution.
The important is the use of single quotes to define a function.
Thank you very much.
