This column would contain the value of your filters ?

Makes sense, BioMart is able to do this if the filter's corresponding attribute exists on attribute page, which is usually the case. If it does not, then, I would suggest to just set value of the filters 1 by 1 and append the column as you do manually, then merge the whole result set. > That would be very helpful, > > Matthias > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > Matthias Trost, PhD > > Tel.
