Dear Susan

thank you for your message. To increase the chances of reply, please 
consider following the posting guide,
http://www.bioconductor.org/docs/postingGuide.html. Also, the more 
precisely you formulate your question, the more likely someone will 
understand it enough it to give a useful answer.

Note that the ROCR package is not on Bioconductor, and if there is no 
further response here, you may need to contact its authors directly.

	Best wishes
	Wolfgang
