you need one top-level list object, List1, with 2 rows and two columns.<br><br>first, the columns:<br>column 1 = FirstWord<br>column 2 = SecondWord<br>under FirstWord you'll want to write [Word1]<br>under SecondWord write [Word2]<br>
<br>now the rows:<br>both rows will call run the same procedure, ShowWordsProc.<br>row 1's nested lists = MainWordList and WordListA<br>row 2's nested lists = MainWordList and WordListB<br><br>in MainWordList you'll need to add a column called Word1<br>
in both WordListA and WordListB you'll need to add a column called Word2<br><br>add all you main words to the column, Word1<br>and add all your list2 and list3 words to the column Word2 in WordListA and WordListB, respectively.<br>
<br>set all the lists to select at random.<br><br>this should do it.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Jul 10, 2008 at 11:31 AM, Spencer S <<a href="mailto:undressmerobot@gmail.com">undressmerobot@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br>

Ben, thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately (and I did not make this<br>
clear originally), I am looking to pair MAIN with ONLY either WORD2 or<br>
WORD3. That is, each MAIN word is shown once, with either WORD2 or<br>
WORD3, such that 50% of the trials have the MAIN word shown with<br>
WORD2, and 50% have it with WORD3. For instance, if BORED and BEARD<br>
were selected, then BORED and BOARD would not be shown later.<br>
<br>
Sorry if I am not explaining this well.<br>
