[texhax] "glossaries" package and external file

[Jerry]

I have been using the "glossaries" package and defining my acronyms and
glossary entries in the preamble. I realize that I could put the
entries at the end of the document also, but then I have to compile the
document twice. In any case, since the list on the latest project I am
working on is rather large, I would like to keep the list in a separate
file. I have tried the "\include{file}" and even the
"\includeonly{file}", but I continually receive error messages about
the acronym or glossary entry not being defined.

Is it possible to use an "include file" with "glossaries"

Thanks!
