How To Convert Large Number Of Records In A Vcf File To Have A Cdna Naming?

I have a vcf file with a record

#CHROM    POS    ID    REF    ALT
chr7    116963804    .    AGATT    A

And I want to convert this and others to a cdna name. Are there any tools or scripts already out there that do this? I need to do this on a massive scale. Thanks

cdna vcf

what do you mean by converting to cdna naming? Also what is the target organism?

Have a look at annovar, which is one of a number tools that can do this sort of thing.

BTW, I assume you mean transcript or gene name, rather than "cDNA name".
