Document Manager
Everyone produces reports electronically, but searching information located in these reports has always been
difficult. Thousands of Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and other documents reside on file servers or individual
computers, with no way to globally search them for information. Certainly, no easy way exists to search
for the chemistry contained in these documents. Document Manager solves this problem, and requires no
change in how you write and distribute reports.
Easy to Use
Document Manager manages a repository of new documents. These can be Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint,
or many other document types. When a new document is added, Document Manager automatically builds a
free-text index of the document, and automatically extracts the chemical information into a chemically-aware,
substructure searchable database. Chemical information can be both ChemDraw and ISIS/Draw. Finding information
in reports is now as simple as entering a query through your web browser.
Unattended Data Indexing
As new documents are added they are automatically indexed and chemical information is extracted. Similarly, if
a document is modified, it is re-indexed. No administration of the server is necessary other than routine back-up.
