CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Computer plays a vital role is the development of any company, it also solves some of its complex problem faced by man and processed voluminous data within a short period of time or at a fantastic speed.

Firstly, it was difficult in a way to get to the staff of different section of the company to talk about the present state of computerized office processing system. Due to the fact of that it were thought to be complicated. I took a lot of strenuous time to make sure that it obtain first hand information to make this study a very successful one and also variable.
However, in spite of all these limitations, the study has been able to a large extent achieved the best out of the limited resources.
1.9 DELIMITATION
This research work ended how the problem of accessing bulky data by the workers can be turned to computer responsibility thereby making power easy end fast. The work focused on the custom and exercise office that choose to be the case study here the data I collected are based on the secondary data of custom and exercise office processing system.
