Thanks Paul,

I managed to load your first example workflow into my Taverna 1.7.1
installation.
After putting some stuff in comment in the mygrid.properties config
file, the program starts fine now.
Let's play a bit :-)

Subject: Re: [Taverna-users] New to Taverna - NCBI workflow

Hi,

Kieren is correct.
One example I can think of is: http://www.myexperiment.org/workflows/25

And if you note the author.... ;)

Another workflow that may be of use is 
http://www.myexperiment.org/workflows/172
In this workflow, I take the output of an NCBI search, and use xpath 
queries to get results from the NCBI xml file returned.
You can chop and change the workflow as you see fit. At the moment it 
takes a kegg pathway description and finds publications for it. Not very

useful for what you want, but can act as an example of how to use the 
NCBI services.

regards,
Paul.
