    See the section on using the "full" keyword function in the users guide, or online here (look for Fixed Response Window/Stimulus Duration with an RT):

    Maya--try deleting the extra column you have after the final rt column (col R)--I think that is throwing off the reading of your input file.

    I encounted the same problem as maya. Even if I specified full like "rt:any,full" and set the upper time limit in style as 2000ms, the stimulus still went away as soon as I pressed any key.

    But just then after reading the other thread, I finally realize that I should set the upper limit of 2000s in the MinMax column in the style file, not in the option. I can't believe the MinMax column just skipped my eyes!

    Anyway it's definitely helpful to read LOTS of threads!
