Hello Ray,

The SNP(129) table is a large one and because you are wanting to do a 
large number of queries the best solution would  be to download the 
table and search it locally. You can find this and other SNP tables for 
hg18 here in our downloads section:

http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/hg18/database/

The best way would be to download and gunzip snp129.txt.gz, put all IDs 
into one file, one ID per line, no
whitespace, and then run grep from the command line like this:

grep -wFf fileOfRsIds.txt snp129.txt > mySnps.txt

Hopefully this information was helpful and is enough to get you started. 
If you have further questions or require clarification feel free to 
contact the mailing list at [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Best regards,

Pauline Fujita
