Hello,
I wrote some scripts few weeks ago, which used to work perfectly.
Now I went back to my folder to use these scripts again, and they simply don't work again, all of them.
The thing is, I, and noone, made any modifications to those!
I use the LoadList method to load my stimuli and encounter the following error message each time I try to start an experiment: "Filename contains an invalid Attribute".
I tried many things including changing filename etc, in vain...
I searched the forum and could not find an answer to this, though I found a 2-years old post about a similar problem.
Is there a solution to this? I'm really confused 
Thanks in advance for any help
cheers,
Leo

| This error indicates that the first row of the file being used to load the List in question has an attribute value that cannot be used. The first row defines the attribute names. Please check to make sure that the first row defines your attributes... 1) First character must be a letter
2) Remaining characters must be a-z, 0-9 ( underscore can be used but not encouraged)
3) Length less than 80 characters. I'd also check the to ensure there are no blank entries or duplicates. You can attach the file in question or a portion of it for further review.

Thanks a lot Brandon,
in fact there was an error in the first row: a variable name contained a "/". I replaced it with a "_" and now it works well!
How could I miss that...
Thank you very much,
have a nice day
cheers,
Leo
