[BioC] targets frame

[Giusy Della Gatta]

Thank you Kasper,
I uploaded the file and I was trying to make the RG list but I got
this message:

> library (limma)
> targets <- readTargets("target_frame_barc.txt")
> RG <-read.maimages (targets$FileName, source="agilent")

Error in read.maimages(targets$FileName, source = "agilent") : 
  Must specify input files

The file are in the same working directory and they are coming from
agilent analysis, have I to specify something else?

Thank you
Giusy

In the filename give it the name of the actual output file from  
Feature Extractor. That should be a big textfile, perhaps 30MB or more.

Read the limma's Users Guide, see priscilla's email from today/ 
yesterday. She had almost the same question.
