include command clarification

I want to know if I can run/execute (with the include command) a number of subprograms (that are in different folders) in a FOR loop depending on a parameter. For the moment only the first program is run and then the whole thing stops.
THX.

In general, no, not with an Include. You cannot dynamically change the name/path of an included file.

Can it be done with a run or exec command? And how - an example will help ...

And if the files (to be run) are in different folders/subfolders it will still work?
