Hi Carol.

This throws an error because your CDF has a tag ("r3") and there is no way
to send a tag for the CDF file through the AffymetrixCelSet$byName
function.  I recommend that you just do this in 2 commands, as you've done
successfully.  Alternatively, you can remove the ",r3" from your CDF file
name to remove the tag and that single command should work.

Cheers,
Mark
