Hi,

I have a bed file in which the coordinates for random chromosomes are given by 
the contig instead, such as NT_166307 or NT_166038 instead of chr7_random.  For 
instance:

NT_166307       162     1062
NT_166307       685     1608
NT_166307       1253    2173

The help files for BED format claim that this is possible, and I know these 
contig-based coordinates exist because I can paste them directly into the 
genome browser and they work.  But trying to load the bed file gives me the 
"NT_166307 not a chromosome (note: chrom names are case sensitive)" error.

I see that this problem has come up before in the mailing list archives (April 
8 2002) and supposedly it was fixed...  So what am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Ariel
