It's an Affymetrix thingie, so the BioC list would be the more obvious place to ask. Notice that there are R data packages, e.g. http://biowww.dfci.harvard.edu/~bioconductor/data/cdfenvs/Win32/mgu74av2cdf_0.1.zip and (if I understand correctly) S-PLUS data libraries like http://www.insightful.com/support/ArrayAnalyzer/DataLibs/CDFLibs/mgu74cv2cdf.zip and I suspect they are not interchangeable even though both come in .zip files. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
