I've read thru all the documentation I can find for BBO dealer syntax, and I'm confused about something.

I simply want to generate one hand at a time on BBO bidding or practice table, using Deal Source with syntax code. Is there a way for me to force a particular bid from an opponent hand from within the syntax code?

For example, if I want my student to practice Negative Doubles, can I generate a 1minor opening, then have the opponent overcall 1S. Is that possible?

If this is covered somewhere in documentation, could you kindly refer me to the right spot?

Not directly; you'd need to manually specify the conditions that would result in the right bids (and then place a robot in that seat, or sit there yourself).

However, you'll likely find this tool has already done everything for you.

There is a specific forum for discussion of Dealer syntax, not sure if you read it all but in any case this thread belongs there: maybe some kind moderator can move it.

Yes you can (if you have programming skills) generate a 1 minor opening, then have the opponent overcall 1S.
I gave up on Dealer when BBO decided for no good reason to suppress the vital tricks function, but if you post there and nobody can help I will scratch my memory.

I've been programming in dealer quite a bit. If that forum isn't sufficiently clear I'm happy to help, though right this moment my time is limited.
