Try the following at the command prompt:

xdl -ncd2xdl macro_filename.nmc

This converts the bus macro to an XDL-description. Have a look at the 
.XDL-file this generates. For each net, there should be a section where 
it specifies which PIPs to use and such. For each net there should be an 
attribute like this:

   cfg "_NET_PROP::IS_BUS_MACRO:" ,

FPGA Editor usually "forgets" to put that in.
In case this attribute is not set for your bus macro, it could help to 
insert it manually in the .XDL-file and convert that back to ncd-format:

xdl -xdl2ncd bm_v2p_4b.xdl

This gives you an .ncd-file which you have to rename to .nmc to be able 
to use it as a macro.
