Access the Subject Number

[Greg Osenbach]

Hello,
I would like to be able to load a particular list file for specific
subjects. I can load the files, however I am having a difficult time
locating the Object.Property for retrieving the subject number that
was entered. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

Best Regards,
Greg

Hello Greg,

Just dim a string variable in your user script, e.g.,
Dim SubNum as String

And then in an InLine, type
SubNum=C.GetAttrib("Subject")

Cheers,

Nicole Anderson

In fact, you can even skip the step of declaring a variable, and just
use c.GetAttrib("Subject") directly wherever you need it, e.g.,

ListFileName = "ListFile" & c.GetAttrib("Subject") & ".txt"

It all depends on what is most convenient for you, and what fits your
programming style.

Does c.GetAttrib("Subject") get the subject's name or the Subject
Number (I am after the subject Number)

If not, now that I know that it is an attribute and not an object
property I just be able to find it fairly easily. Thanks for the
assistance

Greg,

>Number (I am after the subject Number)

Subject number. Matter of fact, you cannot get the subject name at
all, unless you change the default behavior of E-Prime. Subject
number, Session, and more get controlled via the Startup Info tab of
the Experiment object properties box, and you can see how all this
works by looking at the generated code for Sub Main(), in the
sections following "StartupInfoPrompt" labels.

Hope that helps a bit,
