[BioC] Limma - GenePix

[john seers (IFR)]

Hi 

Just out of curiosity, how does limma know how to match the names? Where
do the column names come from?

I am missing something here ...

Regards


John

Dear Juana,

Once the file has been processed by ArrayExpress, and the header
removed, 
the file is no longer a valid GPR format file.  You therefore use 
format="generic" and supply the column names, just as you've done.  I 
expect what you give below will work, but you can easily confirm by
trying 
it.

Best wishes
