[PLUG] latex \newcommand question


Any latex folks know why I can't say the following?

    \newcommand{\col3}[1]{\parbox{6 cm}{\vskip 1 mm #1}}

The error is this:

    ! You can't use `macro parameter character #' in internal vertical mode.
    <recently read> ##

    l.56 ...d{\col3}[1]{\parbox{6 cm}{\vskip 1 mm #1}}

Tia.
