<P>The <EM>insert</EM> macro is used to insert the output of <EM>macro</EM> into an SDF document. <EM>missing</EM> determines the action if the macro isn't found:</P>
<UL>
<LI><EM>ok</EM> - do nothing
<LI><EM>warning</EM> - report a warning
<LI><EM>error</EM> - report an error.</UL>
<P><HR WIDTH="80%" ALIGN="Left">
<STRONG>Note: </STRONG>In early versions of SDF, this macro was used to call user-defined macros. In SDF 2.000 or later, user-defined macros can be called using the same syntax as built-in macros.
