My name is Andrew Evans and I am working in a lab at the Vanderbilt
University Medical Center.  We are trying to install and use Biomart
software to analyze gene sequences.  I'm having a little difficulty with
understanding biomart.  Hoping that you can answer some of my questions and
point me in the right direction.

I am trying to use the Perl API to generate queries for Biomart databases.
I do not want to query my own data but the data of databases already using
biomart (Ensembl etc.).  So my real questions are as follows:
- Do I need to have biomart-perl API installed on my computer in order to
query other biomart databases?
- How do I use the perl API to query biomart?

I have been able to successfully query biomart using the web based martview
at biomart.org but I would like to streamline the process using the perl
API.  I can generate the Perl script using the Perl button but how do I
activate and run the script query?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Andrew Evans
