Thanks Steve,
I already did it and it went perfectly well.
I was just trying to understand the functions David wrote, so that I can use
them maybe for other queries.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to add a condition for the fact that there is a
third parameter to be compared.
I would still ove to know whether there is a way of adding such a perameter.
I tried to do it with a third argument in this line: any( apply(locs,
1, function(x){vec["start"]>x[2] & vec["start"]<=x[3] & *
as.character(vec["chr"])==as.character(x["chr"]*)
but it doesn't seems to work at all.
Thanks for the help anyway
Assa
