Selected Answer: D
D is correct. For example macro(1) -> `macro` => index=web sourcetype=access_combine `macro2($field$)` macro2(1) -> `macro2` | stats count by $field$ see that the first macro (outer macro) is receiving the $field$ argument and passing to the second macro (inner macro)

Correct answer is D. option A, it is not the correct answer to the question about passing an argument value to an inner macro. Option A suggests that the argument value may be passed to the outer macro, but the question asks about passing the argument value to the inner macro.
