Abstract One of the most serious problems of factual databases is the data input, especially when the relation between the properties of interest and the material or experimental parameters is complex. In order to enable data input in the field of thermophysical properties, a new special PC program has been developed, which facilitates the data input by means of a windows technique. In these windows, the user is presented with input fields where alphanumerical values or integers can be inserted corresponding to a given list of descriptors. In principle, this list can be extended by each user. The problem, however, is then to keep all other users informed about the updated list of descriptors. It is intended to establish a community of users of this programme for the purposes of standardization of data input and acceleration of information exchange about measurement results.
