The Procedural Details Batch Loading alllows the user to enter data about experimental procedures in bulk. The file for submission should be tab-delimited with the following headings above each column:
- SLIDENAME - the slidenames for each experiment being annotated should be entered in the first column.
- EXPT_TYPE - enter a valid Experiment Type in the second column. If you want to create a new Experiment type, contact the SMD curators at array@genome.stanford.edu.
- TAGSET - a valid Procedure must be entered as the third column. All the following headings will be interpreted as Parameters referring to this Procedure until another "TAGSET" heading is seen.
- Name of Parameter - this parameter must be a legal option for the previous Procedure, entered in "TAGSET". You can enter multiple parameters, as long as they are legal for the preceding Procedure.
- TAG_some name - You can create a user-defined Parameter by entering it in your batch file with the prefix "TAG_". In this case it will be entered into the procedure: "User defined".
