Dear Aoife

I do not know the insides of GenABEL but it may be looking for the map file first so in fact may not be able to find the ped file either.

1 - Are you sure the files are named as you state?
2 - Are you sure they are placed in ~ which seems an unlikely place to put them.

Having a problem with convert.snp.ped in GenABEL (on linux).

My map file looks like this (tab-separated) (called Genotype.map)


chrom name position

13   SNP1   39703523


My ped file looks like this (Called Genotype.ped)

PF1 PF1 0 0 2 -9 C C

PF2 PF2 0 0 2 -9 C A

PF3 PF3 0 0 1 -9 C C

PF4 PF4 0 0 1 -9 C C


The commands I'm using are:

library("GenABEL")

data <-convert.snp.ped(pedfile="~/Genotype.ped"
,mapfile="~/Genotype.map", outfile="~/Genotype.out")


The error I get is:

Error in convert.snp.ped(pedfile = "~/Genotype.ped", : could not open file
'~/Genotype.map' !


Any idea? It's in the same directory as the ped file, so I don't know why
it can find the ped file and not the map file?


Thanks
