This paper describes an information retrieval system originally conceived for use in a personnel management environment. However, it is perfectly general and readily applicable to other areas. The data are stored in the form of an inverted file. Laymen with no prior exposure to APL can use the system for automatic report generation, frequency distributions and other information retrieval routines as well as simple statistical calculations. Ease of use is achieved via the construction of a simple syntactic structure.
