Small mistake in my subset example. I mean to remove the `$ID` part at the end so that you can play with the whole subset-ted data.frame, and not just get back the ID column. Instead of this:
R> interesting <- subset(DataFile, log2 >= 7)$ID do this: R> interesting <- subset(DataFile, log2 >= 7) I guess you probably figured that out by now, but just wanted to point that out.
