[Equest-users] help with macros?

I'm just getting started playing around with macros, and had a quick
question:

 

I current have a macro defined in my .inp file as follows:

 

##def GHTclassify

 

EL1 Bldg Occup Sch - Office

 

##enddef

 

I entered this directly after the first "INPUT .." line of the .inp
file.  Is this the correct place to define macros?  Does it matter?

 

Further down when I describe a space, I have the following:

 

"EL1 South Perim Spc (G.S1) - Office" = SPACE           

   SHAPE            = POLYGON

   ZONE-TYPE        = CONDITIONED

   PEOPLE-SCHEDULE  = "GHTclassify[]"

   //lots of info on lighting, equipment, infiltration, etc

   POLYGON          = "EL1 Space Polygon 1"

   LOCATION         = FLOOR-V1

   ..

 

The "EL1 Bldg Occup Sch - Office" is a valid annual schedule.

 

However, I'm getting an error that basically says GHTclassify was never
defined.

 

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?  I thought I copied this perfectly out of
the DOE2 Topic section.

 

Thanks in advance!
