Problem with huge list

Dear E-prime group,

I 'd appreciate any help on this issue:

I created an experiment which has two tasks. Task 1: participants hear over
the headphones either two or six digits which they have to remember until
the end of the trial. At the end of the trial, they see a single probe digit
(visual this time) on the screen, which matches one of digits they heard at
the beggining of the trial 50% of the times.

One way of doing it is something like this:

Weight   Digit1    Digit2    Digit3    Digit4    Digit5    Digit6
ProbeDigit
1
[Digit:0] [Digit:1] [Digit:2] [Digit:3] [Digit:4] [Digit:5] [ProbeDigit:0]
1
[Digit:0] [Digit:1] [Digit:2] [Digit:3] [Digit:4] [Digit:5] [ProbeDigit:1]
1
[Digit:0] [Digit:1] [Digit:2] [Digit:3] [Digit:4] [Digit:5] [ProbeDigit:2]
1
[Digit:0] [Digit:1] [Digit:2] [Digit:3] [Digit:4] [Digit:5] [ProbeDigit:3]
1
[Digit:0] [Digit:1] [Digit:2] [Digit:3] [Digit:4] [Digit:5] [ProbeDigit:4]
1
[Digit:0] [Digit:1] [Digit:2] [Digit:3] [Digit:4] [Digit:5] [ProbeDigit:5]
6
[Digit:0] [Digit:1] [Digit:2] [Digit:3] [Digit:4] [Digit:5] [ProbeDigit:6]

A problem with this solution is that it results in a huge list of rows, one
for every possible compination.
Although the experiment is working this way, I believe there is an easier
and "smarter" way of doing this. Maybe using and InLine?

Anybody can help?
Thanks in advance,

Nikos
