Hi  Gordon and everyone

i'm using (Limma V1.5.1, R V1.8.0)

I have an experiment with seven treatments as outlined below

26        0    0      0        0            0         0  -1

I'm currently using normalizeWithinArrays for each of the 26 slides and 
treating them completely seperately
then liner model fitting ->  classifyTests etc................

However I'd like to normalize within treatments

Is there an easy way of taking the normalized *within* arrays results
and *normalizing between arrays* for each treatment seperately then 
combining these back in to a complete MAlist ?
for use in further downstream analysis to compare treatments using 
ClassifyTests etc ?

Many thanks

J.
