Hmm, let me make sure I understand ... so my toolbox would have a macro 
that would run to generate and validate the input, but I would need a 
second "helper" Run Command that would exist only to be called by the 
macro and put the output into the Command Output tab?

If that's the case, I'm not fond of a "helper" Run Command that just 
sits in the toolbox, but if I gotta, I gotta. :)  I'm sure you guys will 
improve it in the future as you understand what we're trying to do with 
macros.

Best regards,
Brandon
