Hello, Andy.

Unfortunately, there is no way to use the Table Browser to identify the
RefSeq IDs that were not matched.  You will need to directly compare your
original ID list with the list of IDs from the Table Browser output.  One
way to do this if you are using a UNIX environment would be to perform the
following steps:

1.  Create a file with all of your RefSeq IDs (file 1).

2.  Save the RefSeq IDs from the Table Browser output to a second file (file
2).

3.  You will need to make sure both files are sorted on the same key.  You
can use the sort command in UNIX to accomplish this.

4. In your UNIX environment, run the following command: join -v 1
[filename1] [filename2] > [filename3]

5. This will save your unmatched RefSeq IDs to file 3.

If you are not using a UNIX environment, you may want to check out the
comparison tool at http://jura.wi.mit.edu/bioc/tools/compare.php.

Please contact us again at [email protected] if you have any further
questions about the Browser.

Subject: [Genome] Table Browser

Is there any way to connect the query list of gene accession numbers to the
output list of gene accession numbers after running a query on the table
browser?  For example, I have the following parameters:



Clade: Mammal, Genome: Mouse, Assembly: mm9, Group: All Tables, Database:
mm9, Table: refGene.  I load my list of query accession numbers, the browser
notifies me that some number of the identifiers have no match.  When viewing
the output, however; I have no way of telling which of my query accession
numbers matched and which did not.  Is there a way to determine which of my
query accession numbers matched and which did not?



Thanks.
