Thats true Vinod.
1. % Global the macro variables are stored in Global Symbol
table for % Local the macro variables are stored in Local
Symbol table
2. You can use the global macro in open code. It is
impossible with Local coz it can be used only inside macro
definition
3.The local get erazed after execution of the programme
wheras the global ends after the session close .
