Probably because you dont have expand vars checked in preferences but just do this.

#EXEC %pathfrom(x,x)

yeah, you were right about the expand part, but i messed with it a little and found out more about functions, i did #FUNC ptest %pathfrom(3511,3616) then #show @ptest to show me what it is, but i was wondering how to incorporate this into an alias. i tried this alias: findpath, with commands #FUNC ptest %findpath( %1, %2);#SHOW @ptest
but the problem is that when i enter findpath 3511 3616 into the command line, the ptest goes to %findpath( 3511, 3616 ), any ideas on how to format this to work?

Just so you know you dont have to do the #FUNC, thats for creating your own function , %pathfrom is a predefined function. So in short you could do..
