Hi,

Macro Search string used is as follows,

index=trans tranTypeId = 1 AND tranDestinationId=1 AND promoCode=$promocode$| eval series="Total Registrations Atempts" | chart count by series

registrationPromo(1) is the name of the macro..

I see this is an older question, hopefully you found a solution to this. I was just working though a similar issue when I found this post. I found the issue to be a hard return at the end of my macro. I was cutting and pasting from an external editor and had grabbed a hard return on the end by accident. My error was something along the lines of 'last argument of appendcols must be a subsearch'. After I removed that hard return, it worked.
