Your syntax is a bit off as you've got some spaces where you shouldn't have. Your'e also missing an %endif

Also be aware that the text comparisons are case sensitive. In the $(USERNAME) evaluation used in the first line the case of the usernames has to be an exact case match. bpunt, BPUNT, and Bpunt are all different.

%if $(USERNAME) == "nvancaspel" || $(USERNAME) == "bpunt"
  %if exists ($(_MS_CONFIG_HOORN_COF)Optimize_admin_CE.cfg)
     %include $(_MS_CONFIG_HOORN_COF)Optimize_admin_CE.cfg
   %else 
     %if exists ($(_MS_CONFIG_HOORN_COF)Optimize.cfg)
        %include $(_MS_CONFIG_HOORN_COF)Optimize.cfg
     %endif
  %endif
%endif

The configuration file syntax supports both %else and %elif conditions.

Hi Nico,

please be aware this is general programming forum, whereas you question is about product configuration. Because of that, I recommend to move your post to Product administration. To move existing post, use More > Move tool under your original post.

Also, please read and follow Communities best practices, because even basic information are missing:

What product do you use?
What version?
What does it mean "how can I use?" ... what is your intention?
What is expected result or your requirement?

Also, edit your post and use Insert > Insert code (with text formatting) to ensure the configuration will be displayed better formatted.

With regards,

Jan
