Thanks David!

Let me try lowering fragment mass error. I will let you know about the 
outcome.

Well, we already had the Proteome Discoverer results and we really want to 
create the spectral library asap, so I was given those results to use 
instead of X!Tandem. and I have never worked with comet. I have to figure 
out how it works first.

I will upload the ProteomeDiscoverer pep.xml in the folder that you have 
it's link, if you had a few minutes just take a look at it. May be it 
needed a few tweaks to work with PeptideProphet.

Thanks so much,
Ali
