DALLAS, September 18 /PRNewswire/ --

- Icon of Chemical and Pharmaceutical Information Provides Quicker, More 
Efficient Access

Chemical Information Services announces the release of the SearcHelper
enhancement, allowing subscribers access to its company, product name and CAS
database vocabulary covering all classes of chemical and pharmaceutical raw
materials. The new tool gives customers the ability to get a "view inside"
the DWCP database and be able to choose the correct chemical and producing
company from convenient, easy to read, drop-down lists.

The Directory of World Chemical Producers (DWCP) and its Global
Information Center is the most unique, extensive and current information
network available to research global chemical producers and products.
SearcHelper's key features include scroll down menus of more than 200,000
chemicals, over 100,000 synonyms, as well as company names and CAS numbers.
DWCP provides only the most accurate and reliable search results, in part to
the service's daily updates and Source2Source features. New information is
incorporated daily, including new chemicals, current contact information,
email addresses and website URL's. Source2Source provides those companies
included in the database access to their own individual listing information,
where updates may be implemented anytime. "Chemical Information Services
strives to stay ahead of the market by providing both high quality
information and cutting edge technology", said John Kuranz, the company's
Vice President and Managing Director. "The SearcHelper enhancement to DWCP
represents decades of gathering information on chemical producers and
products. We are meeting the needs of our customers, by opening up access to
the data that is the foundation of our files which will allow them to find
what they need quickly and efficiently."
