Hi Pierre,

Thanks for the reply. My file structure is :

Nitesh-MacPro:Affy6.0 niteshturaga$ ls -R | grep ":$" | sed -e 's/:$//' -e 
's/[^-][^\/]*\//--/g' -e 's/^/   /' -e 's/-/|/'
*
*
*|-Affy6.0*   
   |-Text-Export
   *|-annotationData*
   |---chipTypes
   |-----GenomeWideSNP_6
   |---------GenomeWideSNP_6,Full.CDF
*   |-rawData*
   |---DATfiles
   |---GRDfiles
   |---LeeAV_2012
   |-----GenomeWideSNP_6
   |---------LeePosCon-120911-GenomeWideSNP-62.CEL
   |---------11-0504-re-GenomeWideSNP-62.CEL

There are more .CEL in the LeeAV_2012/GenomewideSNP_6 folder but i listed 
only 2.



Thanks

Nitesh

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.
