Hi, We will have to get a basic search pattern running for a demo tomorrow. I would need Mubashir to provide me with the data, and Ann would have to process the data afterwards (after the demo-run, to see how it works). Please read the following. >>>Mubashir: Please do look at these links: http://www.beyonddiscovery.org/content/view.page.asp?I=245 http://www.beyonddiscovery.org/content/view.page.asp?I=244 http://www.beyonddiscovery.org/content/view.page.asp?I=241 You might also want to look at http://www.google.com/search?sourceid=navclient&q=gene+combinations+disease >>>Ann: When you get the time, please do look at simple blocks (as big as possible) which are common in a given genetic set. Mubashir will provide you the data that you will have to look through. I'll write a program to do this, which you could use too, in a couple of days or so. You have all the time you want. Thanks people. Good luck. -Mnk --Karthik -//- http://www.metlin.org [Public Key - http://slashdot.org/~metlin/pubkey] __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
