Upload config changes via dynamic .txt file

I am trying to build a process that effectively changes an SSID WEP key on a weekly basis.  I have created a .vbs file that writes to a .txt file a 16 character ascii key and inputs it into a formatted IOS command line (configure terminal, ...., wr mem, etc).  I have created a scheduled job within NCM (an 'execute a command script' job) that will execute the commands within the imported .txt file, however NCM imports the .txt file data only during the creation of the job - not each time the job is set to run.  When the NCM job is ran each week, the key within the file will change but the NCM job fails to see it because it does not dynamically read the file each time.

Is there a method to require the NCM job to read the content of the .txt file each time the job is ran?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Before you spend a lot of time going down this path, please consider using safer and new protocols than WEP.  TKIP and AES were built to address some of WEP's vulnerabilities.  Add  WPA or WPA-II for even more security, since modern laptops can break WEP with free scripts from the Internet, and all they need to capture is just a few gigs of data.  Your opponent can capture that much off a busy wireless network in very little time, and using free hacking tools, make your weekly WEP key change useless.  TKIP or AES will make it harder, but TKIP has more vulnerabilities.  Add WPA or WPA-II for a better night's rest.
