Hi Jing,
If you downloaded the pathway data for additional organisms from
http://bioinformaticsprb.med.wayne.edu/SPIA/build03212011/ then all
you need to do is to copy the file xxxSPIA.RData file in the extdata
folder of the SPIA directory.
(eg. R-2.13.1\library\SPIA\extdata)
Your code should work except perhaps you will get the pathways for
Drosophila and not C Elegans. For C Elegans you should use the sce
instead of dme. The names of CH and the vector CH1 must be valid
ENTREZ IDs for the respective organism.
