The Computerized Protein Adducts Database (CPAD) was created to provide an efficient means of updating and disseminating information on protein adducts relating to their utility as dosimeters of exposure to environmental contaminants, especially genotoxic and/or carcinogenic compounds. The programs that enable the user to search, modify, or update the database and display its contents were originally written in the DBASE III PLUS TM programming language, then converted, compiled and linked by DBASE IV TM, version 1.1. The final product is a user-friendly, menu-driven, stand-alone DBASE application that requires little from the user beyond the ability to read the screen and operate a keyboard. Even a User's Manual is, to some extent, superfluous. The present document largely represents a hard copy of documentation that is already provided within the program itself. The CPAD diskette also contains a copy of the document which may be viewed on screen or printed out as a WORDPERFECT TM 5.0 document file.
