  Hi Sundar,

  This might be difficult to do with the standalone package after downloading. There are ways to do it, though!

  1) Build your own version of the source, using the available setup script from GitHub. If you do this from your own Python installation (assuming it includes the updated modules), you should achieve what you wanted.

  2) Download the portable version, which is based on WinPython. WinPython comes with a very useful package manager, that will allow you to remove the older versions and include the newer versions of the packages you want to update.

  Good luck!

  Thanks Edwin,
  Apologize if I have put the question incorrect.
  say I have built experiment 1 & 2 separately .
  now I start building experiment 3 and I want to import experiment 1& 2 into experiment 3 for them to part of new one.
  so the new experiment 3 will have both 1 & 2 , so i don't have to redo these experiments from the scratch.

  Regards,
  Sundar.

  Terribly sorry, completely misunderstood you!

  Your question has been answered previously, see here

  Good luck!

  HI Edwin,

  I intend to build these experiments by multiple people at different instants of time and plan to integrate them at a later stage to a single big project (one project containing multiple experiments ). And these experiments will be selectable via a check box mechanism whether they will be run or not.
  Here the batch script would not help much

  Regards,
  Sundar.

  Hi Sundar,

  This is true, it sounds like you will need to script a lot more than just a batch file. You might want to get acquainted with Python, and program the GUI you intend to build yourself. You could do this in any other programming language as well, by the way.

  Tip: to call opensesamerun (as in the batch files described in the link), you can use os.system in Python.

  Good luck!

  Thanks Edwin,

  Also figured out one more simple way to merge experiments from the forum here.
  Re-posting it for the benefit of the others

  [You can open the General script (General properties -> Edit script), and copy the definitions of the items that you want to import into the General script of another experiment.]
