Subsetting Vcf Data In Plink/Seq

I have a number of VCF files, each that have two columns of sample data. I'd only like to take ONE of those two columns and load into a project. Is it possible to do this in plink seq? If so, how? I haven't been able to find any documentation on this.

vcf plink

This question specifically addresses how to subset VCF data with PLINK/SEQ. Plink/SEQ allows you to import a whole VCF file into a "project". From here, users can do a number of data manipulation methods etc, however I want to just import 1 column of genotypic sample data into the project itself. I haven't seen any information of how to do this with the specific tool. I ask that this question be re-opened.

No problem! Thanks!

Just in case you do not find the solution, using one of the other options to prepare a filtered VCF might be an option.

I do not have an answer to your question, but your question made me learn about plink/seq. It seems a nice tool, thank you for making me discover it :-)
