| dc.description.abstract | The current research examined the need for an online data validation facility, specifically online data entry assistance and online help on format errors for databases created using Micro Isis package. (Micro CDS-ISIS) software To achieve the specific objectives of this study, two CDS-ISIS Pascal programs (DEA and MOCDS) have been developed using the CDS-ISIS Pascal language. DEA program is divided into two main parts . The first part is developed to provide online field-by-field guidance to data entry operators on how to select and enter data in different fields in a record of a Micro Isis database, based on a machine - readable data entry guide. For the purpose of testing and demonstration of data entry assistance, the ABNCD database guide (accommodating bibliographic records, as well as records of profiles of experts, institutions, projects and information systems) , is used. The second part is developed to provide guidance on 'Authority files' for certain data elements, especially for the names of corporate bodies, names of personal authors, project titles, mono graphic series, serial titles, country codes, language codes , meetings , etc . The program (DEA) provides online guidance on how to enter authority records and provides possibility of marking certain data elements and copying them to similar | en_US |
