As already detailed previously, for sequential selection you need to abandon noreplace and use /select=sequence instead. And, again, you need to make sure your dependencies are defined correctly.
Go back to the example I provided you with at http://www.millisecond.com/forums/Topic9522.aspx#9522 and change noreplace to sequence. Then move on from there.
I am dealing with it, Dave. Thanks
Dave, I did something in the way you had guided, but I think I missed some points, so it does not display any words on the screen. I have attached to the message in zipped folder. I really am in need of your help. If you could have a look at what I did, I would be much obliged.

Fatma,
there are multiple syntax errors in your script. You need to fix them. Pay attention to the error messages in the Inquisit editor's message list pane.
Among other things
- there is no such thing as a /trial attribute for the <block> element. It's /trials.
- various closing brackets are missing (Missing ')' in the above attribute.
- you are referring to elements which do not exist in your script. There are no 'transwords1' and 'transwords2' <trial> elements in your script, yet you refer to them in the blocks.
Dave, do you know anyone whom I can get professional assistance because I am novice about coding the script ?
No, but you really should have to resort to professional help with a relatively simple project like this. I'm confident you can tackle this with a little bit of more practice.
The errors in your script are easy to spot. Look at your <block> elements and go down the list in my previous reply.
(1) '/ trial = [...]' needs to be '/ trials = [...]'
(2) '/ trials = [1-30 = ...(...]' is missing a closing bracket and needs to be '/ trials = [1-30 = ...(...)]'
(3) '/ trials = [1-30 = ...(targetwords1, transwords1)]' does not make sense because there is no <trial transwords1> in your script. Thus '/ trials = [1-30 = ...(targetwords1, transwords1)]'
I have already done the required changes you mentioned, but when I run the script, there appears a word and then a black ribbon appears on the screen.
See the documentation for the /erase attribute.
Dave, thank you very much for your interest. Do you have or know any similar scripts to mine?
I believe you have already found the most similar ones. Regardless, I would recommend you write the thing from scratch based on what we have discussed here so far.
