You need to tell us more about what you do. Otherwise it is not possible to see what's wrong.

I just tested the following script, and it works fine. First, I have an include statement that points to a file with a single Set statement that defines a variable called x. Then I use this variable inside a Load statement.

// ======

$(include=lib://Dropbox/Data/Variables.qvs)

Load * Inline
[Field
1
2
$(x)];

Hallo Henric,

thank a lot for your answer, yes it works like this that you write

$(Include=lib://..............variable.txt);
