Hi Michael and Wolfgang 

Thanks for your help, I think I can get what I need.I am new to R and therefore apologizes for the simple q's.

A couple last questions on this thread if I may:

if I wanted all the gene ids from ensembl it would be this:
entrez =getBM("ensembl_gene_id", mart=human)
> entrez

but how can I get the following working and return all the gene_ids and transcript_ids?
entrez =getBM("ensembl_gene_id","ensembl_transcript_id", mart=human)


My final question is there a wild card '*' , essentially give me all the attributes returns for human ensembl eg:
entrez =getBM(*, mart=human)



Thanks again!
