Thanks for the immediate reply. In the affymetrix description of the
CDF file format (http://www.affymetrix.com/support/developer/
powertools/changelog/gcos-agcc/cdf.html), they have mentioned
'StartPosition' and 'StopPosition' under "Unit_Block" section. I was
curious if they are of importance. I think they are of not.

Thank you,

Rahul

When reporting problems on aroma.affymetrix, make sure 1) to run the latest 
version of the package, 2) to report the output of sessionInfo() and 
traceback(), and 3) to post a complete code example.
