Gubbs Sciex(R) Mass Spectrometry Metrics Tool (GSMSMT) is a Microsoft(R) Office application that
allows managers to view actual Scies mass spectrometer instrument usage. The application uses
Microsoft Excel as a front-end to configure searches and display data as either charts or spreadsheets. A
Microsoft Access database is used as a datastore to record instrument and analytical run information. The
application supports up to 99 mass spectrometers.

When the Update button is clicked, the application interacts directly with acquired .wiff files to retrieve
runtime information, then records in the datastore that that the .wiff file has been accessed and sample
runtime information. Depending on the number of .wiff files, the initial Update action may be lengthy;
however, subsequent Update actions will be relatively quick (depending on network conditions and length
of time from last update).

After the database has been updated, the user may enter appropriate dates, choose any number of
instruments, select chart options, and display the data.
