The use of the BASIS database management system to produce a highly current technocommercial database

Abstract

The requirements for producing a current database, Chemical Business NewsBase (CBNB), updated weekly, including the data content, are briefly outlined. The use of BASIS for data capture, validation, manipulation, and output of the data is discussed with particular reference to the features which support the human element in production and which are used for quality control. Routine production and distribution of CBNB are further examined.
