(load "file") _does_ means to load "file", that is to read from the file. (setq custom-file "file") means that Custom should write its saved values into "file". Maybe you do not even want to start using "file" as your permanent Custom file. Maybe you just want a record of all values you are "saving" to that file, but do not really want to save in .emacs or your "real" custom-file. Sincerely, Luc.
