Specify key press before proceding to the next trial

[David McFarlane]

Deiniol,

How about

     If ( (CInt(Stage1Word.InputMasks(1).RESP) <= 9) and _
         (strHit = "Result") ) Then
     ...

?

Explanation:  Convert RESP to an integer first so you do a numeric 
comparison instead of a string comparison (and use the number 9 
instead of the string "9").  And while you are at it, use a single 
"<=" comparison operator instead of separate "<" and "=" operators.

Alternatively, you might limit the *length* of the response to one 
character (which means, if Allowable allows only numberic characters, 
limiting to one digit).  Thus,

     If ( (Len(Stage1Word.InputMasks(1).RESP) = 1) and _
         (strHit = "Result") ) Then
     ...

So there's more than one way to skin this cat.  Hope this helps, I 
may have missed some complication, but I'm sure you will come up with 
something.
