Using Variables in a Repeating Section in a Macro?

I have crafted my own custom character sheet for my game where the weapon section is a repeating section where the players can just add more weapons to that section themselves. I would like to use variables within those repeating sections to make macros that my players can use without opening the character sheet every time. However when I try putting @{selected|VariableName} in the macro, it says the chat says "No attribute was found for @{selected|VariableName}." I know for sure that I am using the correct attribute name, but it is as if it isn't in the character sheet. If I wanted to pull a variable from the repeating section, what would I need to type in the macro to pull it from the sheet? Can this even be done?

You would need to use @{selected|repeating_SECTION_INDEX_ATTRIBUTE} SECTION is the name of the repeating section INDEX is either the row ID or the $X index ATTRIBUTE is the specific attribute you are wanting to use

I think I know what to put for the SECTION and ATTRIBUTE portion of that command, but am unsure what to put for INDEX. I ended up putting down just some number for INDEX and it just outputs a '#'. 

Actually nevermind just forgot to put a $ next to it! Thank you for your help!
