ERPLAB Toolbox is a free, open-source Matlab package for analyzing ERP data. It is tightly integrated with EEGLAB Toolbox, extending EEGLAB’s capabilities to provide robust, industrial-strength tools for ERP processing, visualization, and analysis. A graphical user interface makes it easy for beginners to learn, and Matlab scripting provides enormous power for intermediate and advanced users.

Hi Xinzhu-Fang,

Typically, EEGLAB has EEG-set datasets with some event info in EEG.event.* If this is a new EEG-set, it typically won't have fields in there that collide with ERPLAB's event naming convention.

If you are running something like generating new EVENTLISTs, it can be that ERPLAB writes data to EEG.event.

If your aim is to analyze data in ERPLAB, I think you are okay to overwrite EEG.event. But be aware that this will change the EEG set in memory. As always, save important data before potential changes.
