Just to add to this....

<@ASSIGN domain$dsnusername "<@LITERAL VALUE='<@INCLUDE FILE="">'>">

would mean the value of @@domain$dsnusername would be <@INCLUDE FILE="">

Thus when you go to use it remember to call it as <@var domain$dsnusername
encoding="metahtml"> so that <@INCLUDE FILE=""> is evaluated and the
password is read in from the file.
