hi martin,

in that case the best is to add the trl field (under yourdata.cfg.trl)  
by hand. 'trl' is a simple matrix containing as many roys as epochs  
and 3 columns: the first your event onset, the second the pre-event  
period and the third your post event period. everything in sampling  
points. read the help info of definetrial.m. if you don't have the  
absolute starting points of your events, then it will probably work if  
you "fool" fieldtrip by adding some random numer in the first column.
once you have done your redefinetrial, then some sanity check using  
e.g. timelockanalysis yould be good just to see if your trl was correct.

good luck,
nathan
