Abstract
In this chapter the possibilities of using expert systems to interrogate large databases will be discussed. Two applications will be highlighted where the expert system increases the functionality of the database, by enabling a more intensive search or by supporting its use by non-experts. Finally new developments in this field of artificial intelligence research will be presented.
