Lexical decision task

Hi, I am trying to build a lexical decision task, with 3 categories of letter strings:
1) "non words"
2) "words"
3) "specific 4 words" that will be different for each subject

Is there an option to write in the script to extract the 3rd category words from a data file (arranged by subject id, so that each id has different list of words for the 3rd category)? 

thank you!

You can have your script load the category 4 words from external files by way of conditional <include> elements. See e.g. https://www.millisecond.com/forums/FindPost19046.aspx
