Do you mean the function normalize.quantiles() from package "affy" 
(please always tell the package, if the function is not in base R)?
It's more appropriate to ask on the Bioconductor mailing list if 
Bioconductor packages are the subject of interest.

And you might want to give a simple, reproducible, but 
non-bandwith-wasting example (perhaps by uploadiung data to some web 
site) in order to make the Bioconductor folks able help you.
