OK then, time to try something completely different.  There's a facility 
in the Examiner for a switch file containing the default switch settings 
that will be used if they are not specified in the command line. The 
file must be called spark.sw and is only read if it is in the current 
working directory.
(It is described in Section 3.2 of the Examiner User Manual.)

So create a spark.sw file in the various working directories 
(presumeably the same ones as the GPS project files) with at least the 
index_file option specified appropriately and do not specify the index 
file in the GPS project file.

Then just make sure that the "Ignore spark.sw" checkbox (on the Examiner 
switches tab of GPS) is not checked and that should do it.

Cheers,

Phil
