The entire contents of one item of schedule data selected in are read from the schedule storage section and displayed in detail at a position adjacent to the display position of one day's schedule data on the display section, As you move the selected position of the cursor during the summary display, the contents of the detailed display of schedule data for one item adjacent to this summary display will change, so the summary of the schedule for one day and the individual Not only can the relationship with the details of the schedule data be easily understood, but also the necessary details of the schedule data can be displayed quickly with a simple operation.

(Example) An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 shows its circuit configuration. In the figure, 11 is a schedule storage unit that stores schedule data of a plurality of items; 12 is a daily schedule creation unit that reads schedule data from the schedule storage unit 11 according to information input by the user and creates display data of a management schedule; 13 is the daily schedule creation department 12
This is a screen control unit that displays a management schedule on the display screen of the display unit 14 according to the display data created in .

Here, one item of schedule data stored in the schedule storage unit 11 is (1) Scheduled date (year 4, month 2, day 2, day of the week 1), (2) start time (hour 2, minute 2) (3 ) End time (hour 2, minute 2) (4) Alarm time (hour 2, minute 2) (5) Message (11) (6) Location (11) (7) Notes (10 digits x 6 lines) (The numbers in parentheses indicate the number of characters input.) It is assumed that up to six items can be stored as one day's worth of schedule data. Then, from among the one item of schedule data shown above, "(2) Start time (hour 2, minute 2)", "(5) Task (first 8)", "(8) Location (first 8)" are selected. )" is read out for each item as summary data, and one day's worth of schedule data is displayed in summary.

Now, assuming that the schedule storage unit 11 stores many items of schedule data, its operation will be explained.

FIG. 2 shows the processing content of the daily schedule creation section 12, in which information instructing the display of schedule data for a specific date is sent from a key-power section (not shown) as input information by the user's key operation. Then, at the beginning of the operation, the daily schedule creation section 12 first reads out a summary of the schedule data from the schedule storage section 11, and displays it on the left side of the display section 14 in a group.

In this case, the search for schedule data is performed using the date data and start time data in the schedule data, and the schedule data that has date data that matches the date specified by the input information is searched, and as described above, the schedule data is searched for. Start time (2 characters for the hour, 2 characters for the minute)" and "Required (1 character)"
(first 8 characters of 1 character)""Location (first 8 of 11 characters)
Characters)" are read out and numbered from "1" to "1" according to the order of time.
It is displayed on the left side of the display unit 14 along with the number ``6''.

Then, a cursor is displayed at the position of the number "1" in the first item 1 at the beginning of the one day's schedule data thus displayed.

When the display on the left side of the display section 14 is finished, the process proceeds to step S2, and this time all the schedule boot items corresponding to the position where the cursor is displayed are read out from the schedule storage section 11 and displayed on the right side of the display section 14. let

FIG. 3 illustrates the display screen of the display section 14 obtained in this manner. In the table showing the daily management schedule on the left side of the screen, the schedule for "xxxx year oO month ΔΔ day Sunday" is shown as the schedule for "10th conference room" from 08:30 in 1st item 1. [Rupo sales promotion meeting] and [1st reception room] from [15:05] on the 2nd day and Sunday
