Using and Modifying a VAS

[cshalloran at gmail.com]

Hello,

First, let me thank Paul Groot for creating and posting his visual analog 
scale.

Second, I am trying to modify it for my purposes. The primary challenge is 
that it was written in E-Prime 1.0, and I use 2.0. When 2.0 opens it, I 
cannot access the script. E-Prime buries the script, at least so that I 
cannot find it and thenceforth modify it.

In my pilot, I have two blocks. The first presents in random order a jpg to 
be rated on the same screen as the VAS. (Easy and done!) The second 
presents again in random order the jpg in a slide prior to the VAS; i.e., 
the VAS will be alone on the screen with the prompt question. Copying and 
pasting Groot's three key objects into another procedure (so that E-Prime 
adds a "1" to the end of their names) results in a crash upon running it, 
given that the script, I deduce, references objects by name. Having the 
same objects in two different procedures, such as in Groot's example file, 
however, means that the second time around, the jpg is shown both before 
the VAS slide and on the VAS slide as well.

Does somebody know a solution... how to access Groot's hidden-by-EPrime 
script so that I can change the objects' names for the second block? how to 
insert an object that will cover the photo in the second run-through, even? 
some other solution?

Thank you!

Humbly,

Chris

P.S. I tried accessing Groot's website since I downloaded the VAS some 
months ago, for I seem to remember the script file being there. However, 
the protections on my server are blocking it, saying it is now blacklisted 
by DNS.
