resource.cfg variables in services as arguments

Hello. I would like to be able to have several community strings for
the same check_command, without exposing them in my service
configuration files. I would really like to be able to say
check_command my_snmp_check!$USER1$
in a "service" statement. I believe "$USER1$" is treated as a literal
in this context.
When I replace $ARG1$ with $USER1$ in the check itself, or $USER1$ in
the service with the actual community string, then the SNMP query finds
the community string and works fine.
Am I doing anything wrong? Is the above (treating "$USER1$" as a
literal) the intended action? Do people just not pass resource strings
inside service statements?
Thank you very much.
Yours,
John
