The Analytical Chemistry Division (ACD) is attempting to improve the quality of data taken from instruments, recorded, and stored in its data base. One avenue for realizing this goal is to reduce the manipulation of data by hand operations. This report describes the design and implementation of a program, FIS-PARSE, that processes output from Lachat, Inc., flow injection optical spectrometer(FIS) and prepares it for storage in the Analytical Chemistry Division's data base, AnaLis; therefore, provision is made for transmittal of both raw data and selected results to archives. It is necessary to review the data before transmitting them to the data base; therefore, direct transfer of results from the computer used to operate the spectrometer was not selected as the method of choice.
