Entrez to Refseq programmatic conversion

[abrook]

Hi,

I have seen similar threads on this and other forums but they failed to solve my problem.

I would like to convert Entrez gene ids to Refseq (or maybe something else) within a Java program. I have been looking for web services to do this but they all seem to be for manual entry and retrieval of data.

What I really need is to retrieve the location (start and end position) of a gene, given its Entrez ID.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Andrew
