timed questionnaire

Hi, 
I am creating a verbal fluency task and I want a textbox for the participants to list all the words they can think of that start with 's' for example. 
However I want it timed for a minute - the timeout attribute does not record the response if they do not finish within that minute. Is there a way to avoid this? 
Thanks

Not sure what you mean.

<textbox example>
/ caption = "List all words that start with S"
/ multiline = true
/ textboxsize = (60%, 60%)
</textbox>

<surveypage mypage>
/ questions = [1=example]
/ timeout = 20000
/ showquestionnumbers = false
/ showpagenumbers = false
</surveypage>

<survey mysurvey>
/ pages = [1=mypage]
</survey>

will record the response just fine when the timeout hits.
