Hi,

I am writing a macro, where I create a newArray() to store names of all the open files. When I run Combine... command to combine the first two files (array elements [0] and [1]) as:

run("Combine...", "stack1=&filenames[0] stack2=&filenames[1]");

It gives me an error "filenames[0] is not a valid choice for Stack1". But, if I assign the array elements to different variables and pass those variables, then it works:

a = filenames[0];
b = filenames[1];
run("Combine...", "stack1=&a stack2=&b");

Is there a way to pass array elements as options to the run command?

Thanks,

Ved
