Hi Luiza,

While you subscribe you will also probably want to read the posting guide:

And if you just want to learn more about the project in general, you can 
also explore our website here:

And to answer some of your questions, yes you can make heat maps of the 
contents of .csv and .xls files.  You may want to start with 
read.table() and heatmap(), but odds are that if you really need to use 
bioconductor, you will probably also want to do a bit more than that.  
What exactly you need will probably depend on details that you left out 
of your last message.
