A commercially available program which integrates word processing, spreadsheet, data base, and graph facilities, is used on a microcomputer to write a proforma for an experimental file. The proforma file contains empty forms for all envisaged documentation collected during the experiment's duration. This includes an outline protocol, cost estimate, literature search, detailed protocol, data collection forms, project account, and final report. The program allows linking of spreadsheets, thus for instance enabling date and time information entered on the daily log of events to be automatically transferred to the labour cost form. Introduction of this concept has greatly reduced the amount of time spent on research documentation and the risk of data adulteration through repeated transcription. It has also improved control over research expenses and standardization of trial document formats.
一种集成了文字处理、电子表格、数据库和图形功能的商用程序，在微型计算机上用于编写实验文件的格式模板。该格式模板文件包含了在实验期间收集的所有设想文档的空白表格。这包括大纲方案、成本估算、文献检索、详细方案、数据收集表格、项目账目和最终报告。该程序允许链接电子表格，例如能将输入到每日事件日志中的日期和时间信息自动转移到人工成本表格中。引入这一概念大大减少了花在研究文档上的时间以及因重复转录导致数据掺假的风险。它还加强了对研究费用的控制并使试验文档格式标准化。
