Thanks for your confirmation.

I tried that and added: #include "C:\Programme\Amibroker\Formulas\1Meine Systeme\Vielversprechend\CCI variable.afl" but got an error for col. 45: "Error 31.Syntax error, expecting IDENTIFIER." although the syntax should correspond with the examples on http://www.amibroker.com/guide/afl/afl_view.php?name=%23include (BTW: Could you, please, review that site? There is an "unreviewed user comment" about missing backslashs in the examples.)
