Dez, I don't think it works that way.  From the HELP:
the letter "F" followed by a digit n
the exchange field number n from the entry window is sent. The numbering of
exchange fields is left to right starting with one. If the name of field n
is "SNT", then "599" is sent as "5NN".

This sends whatever's in the specificed entry field, e.g. 599.

For what you desire, I would use %I in your macro.  This will bring up a
text box during your macro in which you can enter whatever report you want
to send, e.g. 579.  You just type the number and hit RETURN.  If you do it
quickly, e.g. while the first part of the macro is transmitting, it will
integrate seamlessly with the macro as it is being sent out.
