save from macro

[gayu.gop]

hi all..
i am trying to write a macro to render an image sequence in 3d and save the resulting jpgs...
the following is the code...it works fine when the &opath in "save=&opath " is replaced by the actual path but when given the variable generates file not found exception...is there a limitation with save? how can i get over this problem?
*******************************
abc=getArgument;
args=split(abc,";");
print(args[0]);
print(args[1]);
print(args[2]);
print(args[3]);
ippath=args[0];
slices=args[1];
opname=args[2];
opath="C:\\Users\\Operator\\Desktop\\rot_slices\\";

run("Image Sequence...", "open=&ippath number=&slices starting=1 increment=1 scale=100 file=[] or=[] sort");
run("3D Project...", "projection=[Brightest Point] axis=Y-Axis slice=1 initial=0 total=360 rotation=10 lower=1 upper=255 opacity=0 surface=100 interior=50");
run("Image Sequence... ", "format=JPEG name=[&opname] start=0 digits=4 save=&opath ");

***********
pls help...

Hi,

when using a path in a macro call, use square brackets (there might be
special characters in the path).
In case of problems with the '&' notation, java-like String concatenation
with '+' might be more safe:
  run("Image Sequence...", "open=["+ippath+"] number=&slices ...

  run("Image Sequence... ", "... save=["+opath+"]");
