Tobias,

Roughly speaking, I might first generate the full 960 trial List in 
the first session, output the second half of that List to a .txt file 
using Print#, etc., and then run the first half of the List.  In the 
second session I would use the List File Load Method to read in the 
rest of the trials from the .txt file generated in the first session, 
and then run those.

Good luck.

Stock reminder:  1) I do not work for PST.  2) PST's trained staff 
take any and all questions at 
http://support.pstnet.com/e%2Dprime/support/login.asp , and they 
strive to respond to all requests in 24-48 hours -- this is pretty 
much their substitute for proper documentation, so make full use of 
it.  3) In addition, PST takes questions at their Facebook page 
(http://www.facebook.com/pages/Psychology-Software-Tools-Inc/241802160683 
), and offers several instructional videos there and on their YouTube 
channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/PSTNET ) (no Twitter feed yet, 
though).  4) If you do get an answer from PST staff, please extend 
the courtesy of posting their reply back here for the sake of others.
