converting Probs Id to gene name

Hi

I have some probe ID and I want to convert that to gene name

I've run below script in R

library("annotate")
library("rat2302.db")
select(rat2302.db, c("1368587_at", "1385248_a_at",c("SYMBOL","ENTREZID","GENENAME"))

and then I gave an error

Error in select(rat2302.db, c("1368587_at", "1385248_a_at"), c("SYMBOL",  :
  unused argument (c("SYMBOL", "ENTREZID", "GENENAME"))

Please help me, what is the problem?

It's always good to expand your commands and make sure you're not missing a bracket.

select(x       = rat2302.db, 
       keys    = c("1368587_at", "1385248_a_at") ,
       columns = c("SYMBOL","ENTREZID","GENENAME"))​

I appreciated you for your help

I run your command and also run my codes, but I gave the same error that written here

library(annotate)
library(hgu133a.db)

select(x       = hgu133a.db,
 keys    = c("209116_x_at","211696_x_at") ,
 columns = c("SYMBOL","ENTREZID","GENENAME"))

Error in select(x = hgu133a.db, keys = c("209116_x_at", "211696_x_at"),  : 
  unused arguments (keys = c("209116_x_at", "211696_x_at"), columns = c("SYMBOL", "ENTREZID", "GENENAME"))

Thank you again

Running that code works fine for me. Run sessionInfo() and show the results.

Maybe try appending your select command with the library you want the function to come from? AnnotationDbi::

library("annotate")
library("rat2302.db")​
AnnotationDbi::select(x       = rat2302.db, 
                      keys    = c("1368587_at", "1385248_a_at") ,
                      columns = c("SYMBOL","ENTREZID","GENENAME"))​

Note: Be careful copying code from here to your R session, sometimes line breaks are hidden and R can't interpret them.
