Hi Diego, We've tried to present our data in a way that is useful for non-programmers, but the in-depth research that you are trying accomplish requires a bioinformatics background. This means there is no easy way to get all the data using the table browser. We suggest that you take a look at the links below to learn the various ways to access the data that is displayed on our site.

The tracks I'm interested in, are: Mapping and Sequencing Tracks: -BU Orchid (v1 and v2) -GC percent -Recomb Rate -Mapability -GRC patch release Phenotype and Disease Associations Tracks: -GAD View -RGD Human QTL -Decipher -OMIM Genes -OMIM Pheno Loci -GWAS Catalog Genes and Gene Prediction Tracks: -All tracks mRNA and EST Tracks: -All tracks Expression: -All tracks Regulation: -All tracks As I said, I would like to be able to retrieve all this information with their respective scores, cell information (when applicable), signal values, etc. into tables. In this way I hope we can improve the decision making process for the experiments needed to be conducted based upon the results of preliminary data. I think to be able to get all this information with their supportive evidence in tables is of the most importance for researchers who perform SNP analyzes. In this way we can take better decisions, formulate better hypotheses and get the most UCSC browser offers.

If you can provide specific examples of the data/tracks you need for some example SNPs we might be able to help you to construct appropriate Table Browser queries.
