[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Summary] A Japanese document regarding a resource access processing method configured to display a list of resources stored in its own device or in other external devices and perform processing. The user's operability can be improved by having a processing program automatically extract and register both local and remote objects in a manner specified in advance or as necessary. An operation that at least stores mode information in association with the user, indicating whether to display a list of resources stored and managed within the device itself or in another external device, with the aim of improving the performance of the device. The mode information corresponding to the user is read from the environment file and the operating environment file before processing starts, and a list of resources stored and managed in the own device or other devices is displayed according to the instructions of this mode information. The resource list display processing section is configured to access and process a resource selected by the user from the resource list displayed by the resource list display processing section.

[Industrial application field]

The present invention relates to a resource access processing method configured to display a list of resources stored within the device itself or other external devices and perform processing.

[Conventional technology]

When a workstation that has functions for processing documents, charts, etc. displays a list of documents, tables, and other processing targets on its display, and selects one to process, for example, a Japanese document, the screen will be displayed as shown in Figure 5. , the said workstation 5
1 (hereinafter referred to as local objects), a list may be displayed immediately. However, it is stored in the host/server 53.
When updating a managed object (hereinafter referred to as a remote object), the user indicates this and
In response to this instruction, the host/server resource access processing unit 54 retrieves some remote objects from the memory 55 in the host/server 53 into the workstation 51, and performs modification processing on the retrieved objects. Then, after the update, the user
In response to an instruction to register the object within the host/server, the object modified by the host/server resource access processing section 54 is registered in the host/server's memory 55 for storage and management.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

For this reason, as mentioned above, in an operation where a processing program that processes Japanese documents can only process local objects within its own device, the user can transfer remote objects to the host/server 53 each time. It is necessary to issue an instruction to retrieve the remote object from within the host/server 53 and display a list of it, and furthermore, after modification, it is necessary to issue an instruction to register this remote object within the host/server 53 and store and manage it, which requires no user operation. There was a problem that it became extremely complicated.

The present invention allows a processing program such as a Japanese document processing program to automatically retrieve and register both local objects and remote objects in a manner set in advance or specified as necessary. The aim is to improve user operability.

[Means for solving problems]

Means for solving the problem will be explained with reference to FIG.

In FIG. 1, an operating environment file 21 stores various operating environment information such as mode information 21-1 for each user.

Mode information 21-1 is the own device (workstation)
1 or another device (host/server) is to be displayed.

The resource list display processing unit 16 displays a list of resources in its own device 1 or a list of resources in another device 2 in accordance with the mode information 21-1, and displays the resources after processing. Register and store in own device 1 or other device 2
It is something to be managed.

[Effect]

In the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the resource list display processing unit 16 in the device 1 creates an operating environment file 21
The mode information 21-1 corresponding to the user is extracted from the mode information 21-1, and a list of resources stored and managed in the own device 1 or another device z set according to this mode information 21-1 is displayed. After processing the selected resource, the processed resource is registered in the corresponding device 1 or another device 2 for storage and management.

Therefore, a processing program such as a Japanese document processing program performs a process selected from the list of local objects or remote objects displayed corresponding to mode information 21-1 without being aware of it, and after the process, the corresponding program executes the process automatically. By registering it in the device 1 or another device 2, the user can display a list of resources and perform desired processing with simple operations.

[Embodiment] Next, the configuration and operation of an embodiment of the present invention will be explained in detail using FIGS. 1 to 4.
