This post is to divulge the PLINK Input Report Plug-in, which can be obtained from http://www.illumina.com/software/illumina_connect.ilmn. It is a straightforward way to get PLINK format files right from GenomeStudio.
Comparing to the last post (http://livestockbioinfo.blogspot.com/2011/10/howto-convert-genomestudio-files-to.html) this can be interpreted as a enhanced solution, although there are bright sides and down sides from each approach. The plug-in is undeniably more user-friendly, but scripting is nice because of its flexibility and possibility of improvements/adaptations.
Nevertheless, this powerful plug-in allows for exporting PLINK input files for a specific project/chip set or you can create a samplesheet with samples you'd like to add to a PLINK file and load it with GenomeStudio.
Have fun!
