Response to a slide

[David McFarlane]

Just to summarize, in the case where you have only one allowable 
response (e.g., 'SPACE') and you want to test for the occurrence of only 
that response, then the following should work:

If Slide1.RESP = "{SPACE}"  ' using the {key} nomenclature from online 
E-Basic Help
If Slide1.RESP <> ""
If Slide1.RT > 0  ' or "<>" if you prefer
If Slide1.RT  ' you don't even need the explicit test in this case
If Slide1.RTTime > 0  ' etc. as in .RT test

If you had also set the Correct response to {SPACE}, then you could also use

If Slide1.ACC = 1
If Slide1.ACC <> 0
If Slice1.ACC  ' once again, do not need explicit test in this case

Also note that E-Basic/Visual Basic itself is case insensitive, so you 
may use whatever case you like, except that you must observe case for 
the E-Basic {key} nomenclature.

I leave it as an exercise to the reader to figure out the corresponding 
tests for the case of more than one allowable response, or how to test 
for the occurrence of a non-response (or non-occurrence of a response?). 
  You may post your solutions here for extra credit.
