As Sean suggested, you need to convert first codelink ids to some useful
public id. For this step you can use the codelink annotation packages
available in the download section for several codelink platforms (GEChip
BiocViews). They use the information from codelink to map to Genbank,
Unigene and Entrez Gene id (and to other databases thanks to AnnBuilder).
