• Do not quote the parameter being passed to the anyparm() function.

• Note: the anyparm() function has some special considerations:
  • it cannot be nested inside other functions, e.g. lft(anyparm(!parm), x) is NOT supported
  • it cannot be combined with other expressions, e.g. anyparm(!parm) + chr(x) is NOT supported.
