Hi all,

  I am using the "Remove slcies..."  function in a macro, and I would
like to be able to set the first and last images using variables.
If I use the  methods below... not problems:
run("Remove Slices...", "first=1 last=15 increment=2");

but I would like to be able to set first=X and last=Y dynamically to
make the macro more robust., unfornuately the following doesn't work.
a =  X
b = Y
run("Remove Slices...", "first=a last=b increment=2"); // where a and b
are integer variables.
 
Is this not possible, or have I just messed up with my syntax?

Cheers,
Damon
