how to convert probeID (affy 5.0) to rsID?

I got SNP lists by probeID such as SNP_A-4237241 (made from affy 5.0) and it seems there are no rsID contained.
How can I convert these to rsID?
or converting gene symbol would be more useful? (and still how?)

Thank you in advance.

snp affy5.0 rsid

You can try one of the NetAffx CSV files from Affymetrix's website, here:

Edit: I show here how you can create your own annotation package from a NetAffx file:

-----------------

The Bioconductor annotation package, pd.genomewidesnp.5, likely contains the same data but may be date-stamped earlier than that data which is hosted on Affymetrix's website.
