If you have data that is from an unknown source, there will necessarily be some forensics involved to determine what needs to be done. If you have data from GEO, though, then one will want to get the appropriate GEO accession and proceed from there.

After that, you can use any R tools you like to extract data from the resulting object. I'm not sure how that is inefficient, > > What about Biomart? could this works?
