Subject:      Help with creating global macro variables

Hello everybody,

I need some help with creating some global macro variables.  I am using the
following code, and I get attached error

Code:
%macro test;
%global
 %do y=1 %to &numcards;
 &&Slp&y;
 %end;
;;;
%mend test;
%test;

Error:

Macro keyword DO appears as text.  A semicolon or other delimiter may be
missing.
5699      &&Slp&y;
5700      %end;
ERROR: There is no matching %DO statement for the %END. This statement will
be ignored.

Any suggestions?  Thanks for your help on this and all other questions I
haved posed to the group.
