Participants=?ISO-8859-1?Q?=B4_?=response via space key

[Claudia]

The error message says "Run-time Error (Line 438) 10018: Correct
Response is not part of Allowable" which - according to the cursor on
my screen, is the last line in the script-segment I sent earlier. I
have set the Time limit, and checked carefully that {SPACE} is
correctly written both in the appropriate attribute column and in the
"Allowed response" box. I am not sure if you could get a better idea
of the possible problem if I send you a longer segment of
script,.....or would you have any other suggestion?

Thank you very much for your help,
Claudia
