Good Morning Sina:

If you want to find where some feature intersects with the repeat masker
track on any genome, you can use the table browser
and run an intersection of your features with the repeat masker track.

The repStart,repEnd,repLeft are what you described in earlier email.
They are coordinates on the actual repeat sequence itself.  This has
nothing to do with the genome.  You can read all about repeat masker
in the description page of that track and the repeat masker documentation.

Subject: RE: [Genome] Regarding repeat masked tables (human) in ucsc

Hi Hiram

Firstly, thanks for your time!!...And yes, it is the same genome. What I have 
is the comparison results (in terms of exact sequence matches using the tool 
mummer) of 2 genomes, one being hg18. Since I performed these comparisons 
without repeat masking the hg18 genome, I have obtained matches which falls 
within the repeats as well. Now what I intend to do is to look into this repeat 
masker data given on UCSC and remove the matches which fall within the reported 
repeat regions. So to do this, I need to know the coordinates where the repeats 
fall.
So you mean to say, the exact locations of the repeats are exactly genoName, 
genoStart and genoEnd. Then what do the coordinates on the  columns repStart, 
repEnd and repLeft provide?? 

Thanks in advance
Sina K V
