Error messasge...can not get study to run! (case 15065)

    Error messasge...can not get study to run! (case 15065)

    Hello,

    I keep the error message " Row 3 requests style code 15, which does not exist in the style file (.drt), for this session."
    I have never used DirectRT before, so I am very new to this. Can someone help me decipher this?
    I have attached the file in question. I have also tried other files that say the same sort of thing. This study has been done successfully before, however, this is a new Lab we are trying to set up. So I am not sure of the issue.

    Thanks,
    Jessica

    This error means that the styles.drt file you are using does not have a row with a style code 15 in it. To control how stimuli appear during a DirectRT session, your input files-like the .csv file you uploaded with your previous post-uses numbers in the column named "style" to refer to a second file. This second file is by default named styles.drt and can be found in the DirectRT file folder that was installed on your computer; it's most likely on the C: drive if the default settings were used during the instalation process.


    You can solve this by either


    1) creating a row in the styles.drt file you use to have a value of 15 in its Code cell (for more information see http://www.empirisoft.com/directrt/help/directrt_code_assigning_a_reference_number.htm)


    OR


    2) change the values of the style column in your .csv input file to match a number in the Code column of your styles.drt file.
