Group: Forum Members Posts: 7, Visits: 41	Hello, I was using Inquisit 4 for self-paced reading study with 80 items. <item mwstims> /1 =" ...." ... /80 =" ...." with 80 questions. I had 5 different types of sentences but every sentence had its own number. I though that the number of the sentence will be recorded in the output file and I will be able to track the sentences but these numbers (1-80) but these number of sentence do not appear there at all. I was wondering whether there is any way to get the number of the sentence from the output files. Thanks.

You'll have to find another way then to reconstruct the info from what you have logged to the data file.
