1. A process for configuring an operator services database consisting of the steps of:

  • selecting an operator services database engineering computer program;

    selecting characteristics desired in the new operator services database;

    selecting a location of the new operator services database;

    creating an operator services data directory structure for the new operator services database capable of receiving new data copied from at least one source database;

    selecting from the at least one source database, source data for copying into the operator services data directory structure;

    creating an index of data elements for the at least one source database;

    creating an index of operator services data from the at least one source database;

    converting the selected operator services data from a binary format to an ASCII format;

    copying the ASCII formatted data into a memory structure;

    determining if the ASCII formatted data is the same version or release;

    evolving the ASCII formatted data if the ASCII formatted data is not the same;

    merging the ASCII formatted data into the operator services data directory structure;

    converting the ASCII formatted data to binary formatted data; and
