Well, the include command literally tries to include a file into your CMakeLists.txt file. There are two modes:

INCLUDE(path/to/file.cmake)

This mode just includes the file named path/to/file.cmake. If the path is not absolute, AFAIK it is relative to the directory containing the current file being processed.

INCLUDE(modulename)

In this mode, where modulename is just a single name with no path component and no extension, searches for the file modulename.cmake in the directories listed in the variable CMAKE_MODULE_PATH.

I hope this helps, otherwise you'll have to provide more information (e.g. what is it that you're trying to achieve, show the relevant code, etc.)
