Hello, I am running R to combine data from three Affy platforms using the following libraries (Affy, hgu133a2.db, and hgu133plus2.db). After loading the libraries and reading in the data, I run the following to output a combined dataset with the common probes on all three Affy platforms but get an error message: ................... comdata2 <- combineAffyBatch(list(data1, data2, data3), probepkg=c("hthgu133aprobe", "hgu133a2probe", "hgu133plus2probe"), newcdf="comhgu133") package:hthgu133aprobe hthgu133aprobe package:hgu133a2probe hgu133a2probe package:hgu133plus2probe hgu133plus2probe 241661 unique probes in common Error in as.vector(x, "character") : cannot coerce type 'closure' to vector of type 'character' .................... If I run the code with only two datsets (data1 and data 2 or data 1 and data 3, it runs fine: e.g.: comdata2 <- combineAffyBatch(list(data1, data2), probepkg=c("hthgu133aprobe", "hgu133a2probe"), newcdf="comhgu133")). The problem seems to occur with combining all three datasets. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks! Anu [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
