[BioC] Help on Loading AgilentData into LIMMANataliya,

This is not due to the size of the file, but to special characters in the 
file itself causing premature end-of-file.  Gordon replied, if I recall, 
that this was a bug in R 2.1.0 and has been fixed in R 2.2.0.  Perhaps you 
could send version and sessionInfo, just to be sure what versions of 
everything you are using?  Also, you might want to look in the archive for 
Gordon's specific answer.

Subject: [BioC] Help on Loading AgilentData into LIMMA


I'm coming back to my problem of import of Agilent data into the
Bioconductor
limma package.
Version of R is 2.2.0
Limma as well is the newest possible as I've installed Bioconductor only
two weeks ago.
Each "target" file is Agilent 44K Human oligo microarray,
produced by FeatureExtraction 7.5.
I'm importing data into limma with:
 > RG <- read.maimages(files = targets$fileName, path = loadPath, source
= "agilent")
Afterwards checking the dimensions of RG with dim(RG) - 6195 rows only,
with no difference how many target files I've been loading.
I go further and checked the same function on another data set -
Agilent custom 11K oligo microarrays extracted as well with Feature
Extraction 7.5
(with the same default settings of Feature extraction procedure as for 44K).
And to my surprise the target files have been loaded completely into LIMMA.
Dim(RG) -  8635 rows.
So the problem is that of 44K - maybe target files are to big?

Does anybody have any suggestions?
