Sorry. In the upper-left part of the normal Taverna screen you will see the tree of known services. The emma service that you want to use is already in the tree. In Taverna 1.7 you can search for the service and it will be highlighted in red. In Taverna 2.1 you can filter for services containing the string "emma". In Taverna 2.1, the service you want will be at the bottom of the filtered tree. You can get to it without filtering as it is under "Soaplab @ http://www.ebi.ac.uk/soaplab/services"; -> alignment_multiple -> emma. To add the service to your workflow you can right-click and choose "Add to model" for 1.7 or "Add to workflow" for 2.1. The service will then be added to the workflow with (a rather large number of) meaningful inputs and outputs. Just connect those inputs and outputs up and it should work. Taverna understands different types of services, such as queries to a Biomart database, calls on WSDL operations, and calls on Soaplab services. The problem you have come across is that a Soaplab service such as emma works by calling other services (which happen to be WSDL operations) behind the scenes. Users do not normally see those WSDL operations and BioCatalogue is wrong to tell you about them. To give a bad analogy (and because I am hungry), a cake is made up of flour, eggs, sugar and butter all nicely mixed and cooked. You wanted to eat a cake (call the Soaplab emma), but instead you were told by BioCatalogue to eat the raw ingredients (call the WSDL operations). I'm not sure that helps :) > Emily Alan ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
