Hi Jimmy,
When trying to run an analysis, I get the following error message:
Warning: Divide by zero.

Error while evaluating uicontrol Callback

This message appears after the datamats are loaded, and then the analysis freezes at the "PLS working" stage.
I'm guessing one, or more, of my session profiles contains an error.
How do I locate the source of the error, and can I use the error message to locate the source of the problem?

Thanks,
Omer

According to the error message, it seems that the datamat file from a subject session is abnormal when you run Mean-Centering E.R.fMRI analysis.

If you run a quick Mean-Centering analysis on that subject (without perm/boot), it should come up with the same error message; while no error message will show up if you do so on other subjects.
