Batch Sequence-Infinite Loop

Hello,

I am humbled by the simplicity of my question, but the reality is that I have no experience with writing any type of program script. Through the forum I have learned how to create a batch script for my experiment (see below), but the problem is that subject "4" (i.e., with a remainder of "0") is kept in an infinite loop (i.e., the program continues to run through both IAT tasks). As such, my question is: What syntax do I need to include to signal to the program that it should end after the two tasks for subject 4 (remainder 0)?

<batch GroupA>
/subjects = (1 of 4)
/groupassignment = subjectnumber
/file = "SexualIAT-FemaleLeft.iqx"
/file = "PleasantIAT-Maleleft.iqx"
</batch>

<batch GroupB>
/subjects = (2 of 4)
/groupassignment = subjectnumber
/file = "PleasantIAT-Maleleft.iqx"
/file = "SexualIAT-FemaleLeft.iqx"
</batch>

<batch GroupC>
/subjects = (3 of 4)
/groupassignment = subjectnumber
/file = "SexualIAT-MaleLeft.iqx"
/file = "PleasantIAT-Femaleleft.iqx"
</batch>

<batch GroupD>
/subjects = (4 of 4)
/groupassignment = subjectnumber
/file = "PleasantIAT-Femaleleft.iqx"
/file = "SexualIAT-MaleLeft.iqx"
</batch>

Nothing in the code you posted should cause an infinite loop. Have you double-checked / ensured that your Inquisit installation is up to date?
