The workaround works. But thats after I removed each raw bioassay and its associated experiment first and thereafter remove all the other items by emptying the trash. Note I have multiple experiments loaded :affy, genepix and agilent from Biosource to Experiment items. I will try deleting all at one go again and let you know Cheers, ¬Dominic ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
