Hello,

Using web tools, to perform a full intersection of the data from the RefSeq 
Genes track and the SNP track, the general method is to export both data sets 
to Galaxy (via the Table browser) and then use the function "Operate on Genomic 
Intervals -> Intersect".

To also include gene symbol information (it is not included in the RefSeq Gene 
track's primary table) you may wish to create a custom file (or track) based 
the UCSC Gene track instead. The UCSC Gene track contains RefSeq along with 
other input sources, concatenates the data down to a non-redundant set, and 
links in many types of common gene identifiers. This custom file could be used 
in entirety or filtered to only include those transcripts/genes that include 
input from RefSeq.

Please examine the UCSC Gene track description page for the methods used. Then, 
using the Table browser, bring up the track and browse the associated tables 
using the "describe table schema" button. Once the desired table.fields are 
identified, select the output option of "selected fields from primary and 
related tables", format the result, and output to Galaxy.

Here is some help for the Table browser that provides specific procedures and 
examples:

Help for Galaxy is also available through a mailing list and an FAQ from their 
web site.

Thanks,
