That is correct, you cannot have dynamically generated includes.  One
method of getting around this (as long as you aren't including script)
is to use the File System Object:

   Dim TextStream	
   Dim S	
   Dim FSO
   Const OpenFileForReading = 1 
			
   set FSO = Server.CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
   S = Server.MapPath("\virtualpath\filename.txt"
   Set TextStream = FSO.OpenTextFile(S, OpenFileForReading)
   sDisp = TextStream.ReadAll 
   TextStream.Close 
   set TextStream = Nothing
   set FSO = Nothing

   response.write sDisp

Be sure to replace the virtual path and file name as appropriate.

Have fun coding!
