[BiO BB] Obtaining Genomic Sequence

Thanks for all your responses, but maybe I need to clarify what I'm
trying to do. I have a list of accession #'s for genes. I want to get
the full-length genomic sequences (including exons and introns).
I can get the chromosome and genomic coordinates using NCBI's eutils
efetch method, however I'm not sure how to retrieve part of a sequence.
I don't see information on NCBI's eutils documentation and was wondering
if anyone here knew.
In other words, say I have a gene that occurs on human chromosome 1.
The accession # of chr1 is NC_000001, and I have the genomic
coordinates, say 100 to 5000 on the positive strand. Without retrieving
the entire chromosome, how can I retrieve just bases 100 to 5000?
I can't do this by hand, as I have 1500+ genes, so I'm hoping to perl
script it...

If I have an accession # for a gene that I know occurs on a particular
chromosome, how can I get the full genomic sequence for that gene
containing all the exons and introns?
