Ted and Gianni,
I'm not familiar with the double dots you both used. When is this necessary?

Use a dot to as a delimiter to specify the end of the macro expansion when you can't leave a space between the macro and the rest of the command, so:
cTable ="Customer" &cTable.key && expands to "Tablekey" and fails, while &cTable..key && expands to "Table.key" likely what you want.
