Thanks Matthew,
I am trying to preprocess two batches, hgu133a2 and hgu133plus2 separately using frma but I want to
then subset for the set of common probes, that's why I want to frma hgu133plus2 chips to hgu133a anyway,
I try the convertPlatform but as I said it did not work out. DO you me to send you affybatch ?
