Thanks. Actually, once I looked back at DirectRT, I discovered that I can implement many randomization constraints by judicious use of input lists and rwg (or wgr). Of course I could do even more with via Excel, but in many cases input lists + rwg would do good enough.

Also - it should be noted that DirectRT 2010 will have the ability to harness excel in the same way that MediaLab can before its Fall release.
Terrific, you beat me to it! I was going to note that curious distinction between ML and DRT, looks like you're about to take care of it. I also note that ML allows relative paths for stimulus files, whereas DRT does not, could that be fixed? And DRT has a nice rand() function that ML lacks. I have been building up a list of these curious distinctions between ML & DRT, if I compile more then I will post them for you.
