Thank you Sean and Paul, Actually I was looking for something to using in R without calling samtools.

To convert sam -> bam without leaving the comfort of your aRm chair, try: R> library(Rsamtools) R> ?asBam Scan the docs to see how asBam works. I'm not sure when that was added. If you don't see it in your install, maybe you need to be running R-2.13 and bioc 2.8 -steve -- Steve Lianoglou Graduate Student: Computational Systems Biology ?| Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center ?| Weill Medical College of Cornell University Contact Info: http://cbio.mskcc.org/~lianos/contact

Not sure if you can do it from within Bioconductor, but the command line tool samtools will let you do it. If you really need to do it from within R I suppose you could call samtools from R. Paul.
