[BioC] error opening corPlot.R

[David Kipling]

Hi

I think Swati is trying to source the corPlot.R file so that he gets access to
the corplot() function within it.  Just using ...

file.choose()

... doesn't achieve this, but rather returns the full path to the corPlot.R
file.   If he wants to both find the file *and* source it to get the corplot()
function loaded in his workspace then...

source(file.choose())

...does work!   I use this quite a lot because I am a dis-organised airhead who
can never remember in which directory I've left a file :-)

Regards

David

I don't remember if that is what David recommended, but the actual 
function is file.choose(), without encapsulating in a call to source().

HTH,
