Can I pass string variable into the include statement to based on file path as a string variable? Can it be done
system command to show the current working directory.
Thanks for your response I have an understanding of CWD command. I’m looking for a way to pass a string variable into the include statement to include a MathCad file based off of the file path stored as a string variable. Is there a way to do this?
Is there a way to make ssmith as a variable that is in include path?

If you (or your local neighbourhood tame programmer) are up for some programming in a different language in a different environment, then you could see if the Mathcad API would support you in writing a function that inserts a reference.
I've had a quick scan of the API but couldn't see anything, but that's not to say it's not there (I haven't written a Mathcad interface in over a decade). If you're a support customer, then it might be worth asking the question of PTC.
I suppose there's always something like https://www.autohotkey.com/, which might be combinable with a Mathcad DLL.

Hi,
Hate to be the bearer of bad news.
The answer is no, but it would be a great feature to ask for.

This is needed to grow the API
