[Go] advice changing IDs

So far I have tried all of the suggestions:
http://www.uniprot.org/?tab=mapping
http://pir.georgetown.edu/pirwww/search/idmapping.shtml
http://www.ebi.ac.uk/Tools/picr/
and
http://david.abcc.ncifcrf.gov/conversion.jsp

all of these tools will only map a variable proportion of the IDs (max 
75%), because the 'obsoleted' IDs  are not mapped.

I have mailed the EBI helpdesk to see if they can help.  Authors 
frequently use Uniprot IDs instead of accession numbers in papers so it 
would be useful to know how to access the 'dead' ones. If I find a 
webserver which does this I will let you know.

Thanks for all your responses

Val
