Hi Doug, coming back to this once more. I am thinking that I can bypass mkcontrast-sess entirely if I provide a contrast matrix that has ContrastMtx_0 and WCond set to the contrast that I am interested in. For example [1 -0.2 -0.2 -0.2 -0.2 -0.2] to contrast my first continuous predictor and against the remaining five continuous predictors. For that, I would just place a corresponding mat file in a subdirectory in mystudy. Is there anything that speaks that and anything else that I need to consider? Thanks! Caspar
