Compiler Variables in Text File

I am trying to get compiler variables out of a text file. My goal is to have an install script that will can be compiled from the command line and pull variables out of a text file. In my testing, I have been trying to pull the files I am installing from a text file. I have setup the compiler variables with default values. I have also changed my script to use the variables instead of the file names. I can verify that the script is okay because it will compile fine from the command line if I have the files in the default location. However, if I move them to a new location and try to pull this new location from a text file (at compile time) it errors out looking for the files in the default path. If I remove the default path it will build the setup file, but the compressed file DOES NOT contain my exe's. Any help on this would be great, the reference material I have doesn't tell me much.
