Dear Chibolts,

Knowing that it is not possible to create an Excel output with the COMBO command, I tried using the following KWAL command string to export target utterances including a verb followed by a gerund with no luck:

 KWAL +s"v*|*^part|*-PRESP" +t*PAR +t%mor +f +u +d6 filename.cha

It produces an empty Excel output. When I use the same string with COMBO and the +d2 switch, it produces a chat file including the target utterances.

Could you please help me with this so that I can get an Excel output for the KWAL command above?

 Many thanks in advance,

Zeynep

Zeynep,

Your COMBO command was missing one more option for searching on dependent tiers, Here is what will work:

combo +s"v*|*^part|*-PRESP" +t*PAR +d6 +d7 filename.cha

Dear Leonid,

This COMBO command only provides the frequency of utterances (how many times a verb is followed by a gerund) including the target structure, but not the actual utterances as a KWAL command would do (on a separate column on the spreadsheet). Can you suggest such a command? Thank you!

Zeynep
