A screen name description column A3 is a name of the screen which is sequentially switched and displayed according to the operation of the personal computer. This is a column for writing “. Therefore, each time a new screen is displayed, the previous screen may be hidden behind, or the previous screen may be displayed around the new screen as a background. further,
When the screen is closed, the screen displayed before the screen is displayed is displayed. In the present invention, this screen is also expressed as a new screen. Therefore, normally, a screen with a deep hierarchy is displayed sequentially, and then the screen returns to a screen with a low hierarchy, and the same screen as the first screen is displayed on the last screen.

The procedure number entry column A7 is a column for entering a number which is sequentially assigned each time a new screen is displayed.

The operation target item name entry field A4 is used to indicate which item in the display is the operation target when the screen indicated by the screen name is displayed.
This is a column for describing an item indicating the operation target. This operation target item name description column A4 may be a single operation target item name, a plurality of operation target item names, and sometimes the operation is automatically performed inside the personal computer. Only the screen is displayed, and when the processing is completed after the processing is performed inside the personal computer without performing any operation, the display of the screen may be terminated. When there are a plurality of operation target items, the operation procedure is indicated by a delimiter such as an arrow “→”. In this case, among a plurality of items, when the order of operation is determined, the items are described in that order. The items may be described in order from the item, but may be described in an easy-to-operate order.

Next, the operation description column A5 will be described.

The operation content description column 5 is a column for describing what operation is to be performed on the operation target item name described in the operation target item name description column A4. Therefore, the operation content description column A5 has a one-to-one correspondence with the operation target item name described in the operation target item name description column A4.

Here, in order to clarify the correspondence, it is better to describe a delimiter for each operation. For this reason,
The delimiter described in the operation content description column A5 has a one-to-one correspondence with the delimiter described in the operation target item name description column A4.

It is convenient to abbreviate and describe the operation contents in order to easily show the operation contents. In particular, when the mouse is frequently used as in recent years, the click which is a normal mouse operation is “C”, the right click is “RC”, and the point is “
P "and drag are described as" DG ", etc., and in the case of keyboard operation," KB "is described, or"
-”May be used. Needless to say, the abbreviation may be not only full-width characters but also half-width characters, katakana characters, hiragana characters, and finally Greek characters. It goes without saying that the description may be abbreviated as long as it is determined in advance.

Next, the remarks column A6 will be described.

The remarks column A6 is a column for entering a comment or supplementary explanation for the operation target item name described in the operation target item name entry column A4 or the operation content described in the operation content entry column A5.
