+| [Execute a Macro action](action:Execute_a_Macro) | Although _Execute a Macro_ is _not_ technically a trigger, when a Macro is executed by this method (the "Sub-Macro"), the //%TriggerValue%// token (as evaluated in the "Sub-Macro") will be either of two values:\\ 1. The //%TriggerValue%// of the calling ("Main") Macro\\ OR \\ 2. The value of the Parameter of the _Execute a Macro_, **if** a Parameter is provided. |
 To use the %TriggerValue% token in a numeric field, use the [CALCULATE](https://wiki.keyboardmaestro.com/function/CALCULATE) function: CALCULATE(%TriggerValue%).
 You can easily access the individual parts using the token array notation, eg `%TriggerValue[3]%` will be the third comma-separated value, and `%TriggerValue[3];%` will be the third semicolon-separated value, and `%TriggerValue[3] %` (note the space between the `]` and the `%`) will be the third space-separated value (8.0.4+).
