			            Hey guys!
 I'm having some trouble while programming a task in Inquisit 4.
 Participants have to complete a survey; they have 13 question, 10 minutes time to solve them, they can scroll through the questions and end the survey whenever they want (finish button).
 I already have a timer showing the elapsed time to participants:
 
 <clock timer_survey>
 / mode = timer
 / erase = false
 /resetrate = experiment
 / txcolor = yellow
 / txbgcolor = black
 / timeout = 600000
 / position = (90%, 7%)
 / format = "mm:ss"
 </clock>
 
 So what I need (and what the timer displays) is the total time they spend on the survey. Now I am trying to record this time in some variables,
 but somehow the elapsedtime expression does not work...
 
 This might be stupid but I tried:
 
 <expressions>
 / LRT_time = clock.timer_survey.elapsedtime
 </expressions>
 
 and then
 
 <data>
 /file = "MC_new_LRT.iqdat"
 /separatefiles = true
 / columns = [expressions.LRT_time]
 </data>
 
 Somehow, this does not work but I figure there has to be a pretty easy way, since i already have the timer giving me the right data...
 
 Can someone maybe help me out?
 
 Thanks so much,
 Nora
