Opening an external link from E-Prime

[Eric Dixon]

Hi Tracy,

I'm sort of a novice as far as e prime is concerned so I would take the 
advise of others over mine. Anyway, I don't think that e prime will allow 
you to reliably open a web browser or other applications while e prime is 
running. It tends to take over the CPU while in use. 

I'm not exactly sure what data you are looking to collect but if its just 
questionnaire data and you absolutely need to run it in e prime then you 
could always just type out the questions into Text Displays and have them 
respond accordingly. 

*Note: This would be very time consuming so I would consider whether or not 
you need e prime for this task. Maybe just have them run through your 
experiment and then open the link manually. 

I hope this was some help.

Cheers,
Eric
