Hi Joern

Thanks for your help so far, I've tried your suggestions and below are the outputs:

> str(X$Cy5)
 chr [1:3] "MB_C_3" "MB_E_2" ""
> validObject(PA)
[1] TRUE
> str(PA["2L.start"])
 int [1:389633] 5131 5176 5236 5281 5401 5461 5501 5571 5611 5681 ...
> str(PA["2L.index"])
 Factor w/ 2157868 levels "CHR02LFS000005131",..: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ...
> str(featureNames(X))
 chr [1:2173626] "RANDOM00060002" "RANDOM00060003" "RANDOM00060004" ...

So from what this tells me my files do not correspond correctly, can you suggest how to help them link up?

thanks again
Lizzy

Hi Lizzy,

I think you are right and there might be a small issue with the objects that
you created. How exactly did you create them?
First check if the argument 'modColumn' is set correctly.
What is the output of
str(X$Cy5)
Alternatively, the probeAnno could be the culprit. What are the results of
validObject(PA)
str(PA['2L.start'])
str(PA['2L.index']) # should correspond to featureNames in X
str(featureNames(X))
?

Sorry that I cannot give more precise help at the moment, but I hope we can
find the problem with the information requested above.

Regards,
Joern
