Sorry for not replying sooner. Yes, you found the solution - if you want
something to be recognized as a macro name, but it is adjacent to other
alphanumeric text, then the use of quoting is the proper way to separate
things to make it obvious that you intended to start a new macro-name
token at the point of the close-quote. It is also common to see empty
quotes, in case app_mssql_ is desired to be a macro name:
name app_mssql_`'DBSRV

Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
