Sorry everyone, ignore me, it doesn't work.
(Got my test files mixed up - aargh!)

Thanks Julian - I tried a startstop environment originally but it didn't work.
The answer turns out to be trivial - just needed to use \long\def for
\stoptabulate so the following appears to work:
\def\startMyExample{\starttabulate[|r|c|l|p|]}
\long\def\stopMyExample{\stoptabulate} %% long def

Not sure if this helps, Bruce, but there is \definestartstop

I have a technical manual style document that requires a lot of examples to be
included.
They can easily be typeset with a table so I thought I would save myself some
typing by defining macros for the various bits of a tabulate table. Thus I have:
\def\startMyExample{\starttabulate[|r|c|l|p|]}
