#include?

I have a file that contains some variables that I may want to share throughout multiple scripts.

I think there's an #include command in UNIX.

How do I use it (in korn)?

In shell scripts, anything code the follows the # sign will be ignored until the end of the line (with the exception of the first line...see Perderabo's excellent write-up in the FAQ).

So what you want to do is "source-in" the file that contains the variables. Lets say that file is filea. In your script, put a line like this.

Code:
. /path/to/filea
