Dbsnp In Bed Format

I've seen there are many format of dbSNP (XML or ASN1); I'm wondering if there's available bed format of dbSNP? Or from which format can I create the bed?

Also, I can easily download bed format of SNP from UCSC genome. So any difference between the two? Should I merge them into a larger database?

THanks

You can download the file from UCSC. It always have columns with chromosome name, start and end and you can shift these columns in the beginning (bed file).
