If you are using IIS 5.0, you can now do dynamic includes with either the Server.Transfer or
Server.Execute methods.  The file included will have access to the intrinsic ASP objects, but not
variables dimensioned on the calling page.  I also found a bug with this in that the Server.Execute
method will not execute on a path that includes a virtual directory.  These features are brand new
in IIS 5.0, and consequently are not well documented.

The other way to accomplish this is to stick the code from the include files into subroutines and
then call the sub routines based on your case.  This makes for spaghetti code.

You could also have two separate asp pages and perform a Response.Redirect to one of those pages
based on the case.

I have used all three and they all have drawbacks, but the third one is probably your best bet.  It
allows for more atomic ASP pages and it is backwards compatible with IIS 4.0.  I hope this helps.
