im not 100 % sure what you mena but what about using an if statement to select the include file to use



<%

if strLanguage = "english" then 

%>

<!--#Include File="english.asp"-->
<% else %>

<!--#Include File="portugues.asp"-->
<%END IF %>

What u are tryng to do is puting Include files but it dosn't work...

It give an erro like name redefined or somthing like that ...because

the Include File its load until the ASP Script

That will work, if the language files use the same variables and declares them you would get that error

I would declare the variables first i.e.



<%

Dim strValue1

Dim strValue2, strValue3, strvalue4

if strLanguage = "english" then 

%>

<!--#Include File="english.asp"-->

<% else %>

<!--#Include File="portugues.asp"-->

<% End If %>

and in the language files do not declare the variables, just set them
