I am attempting to analyze Affymetrix exonchip data using the exon map package. I have installed this package but have had problems installing the associated programs, specifically RMySQL since no windows binary exists.
I have followed the directions for compiling the package as found on - http://biostat.mc.vanderbilt.edu/wiki/Main/RMySQL - but still have an error when executing the install.package command. RTools, and MSQL 5.5 have been installed on my computer. Path environment altered to include RTools and R, verified to be working.
