Hi Douglas

Thanks for your answers. 
I have two more questions: 
1) In which file(s) do I find the labels 151-255? 
2) What do the columns of zeros and the numbers 64, 112, 160, 208 and 255 in 
your answer mean?

Leise

You should also add 251-255
251 CC_Posterior                            0   0   64  0
252 CC_Mid_Posterior                        0   0   112 0
253 CC_Central                              0   0   160 0
254 CC_Mid_Anterior                         0   0   208 0
255 CC_Anterior                             0   0   255 0

That is sufficient
