Thanks for your help!

I am using jetspeed which is using turbine and velocity
At this combination the TEMPLATE_ROOT directory is

  templates/vm

Dear Sanchez,

you must swap #include and #parse

#include is for normal files like text or images 
(you can enter more than one filename)

while

#parse is for .vm files (only one file per #parse command)

i think that you use #include but if you want include a file that is not
a .vm file test with #parse may be that's the problem

Hi! the TEMPLATE_ROOT is the directory ../templates where normally be
GlobalMacros. Here´s the place where you should put the file that you
want to include in a .vm file!

The include file may only be under the TEMPLATE_ROOT directory - but
where is it?
I putted my text file in the template directory but nothing happened.
Do I need to set an environment variable called TEMPLATE_ROOT?

#include
or
#parse 

the second parses the VTL the first does not.
