Hi Jennifer,

My apologies - when I tested this I didn't check that the chromosome 
coordinates were exactly the same. Sorry for misleading you. In the 
process of researching this further I found a FAQ that answers your 
question exactly: 
http://genome.ucsc.edu/FAQ/FAQdownloads.html#download32. Essentially you 
will create a custom track 
(http://genome.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/help/hgTracksHelp.html#CustomTracks) 
of the genomic coordinates in a BED format and upload this to the Genome 
Browser. Then select the custom track in the Table browser and select 
"sequence" as the output format to retrieve the data.

I hope this information is helpful.  Please feel free to contact the 
mail list again if you require further assistance.

Best,
Mary
