Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (a) Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a data processing device that registers a series of data processing procedures and executes data processing according to the registered procedures, and particularly relates to a data processing device that registers a series of data processing procedures and executes data processing according to the registered procedures. The present invention relates to a data processing device configured to allow registration.

(b) When performing conventional technical data processing, for example, when performing processing such as "outputting May application record data in a form",
■ Open the data file that stores the application data, ■ Select the data that was applied in May, ■ Select the form to be output, and ■ Output the selected data to the selected form. must be processed.

There is a data processing device in which such a series of processing is programmed and data processing is automatically performed in accordance with the program.

(c) Problem to be solved In conventional data processing devices, the method of registering the processing procedures is based on a program, which requires specialized knowledge and is difficult to register without a professional operator. There was a problem.

The inventor of the present invention has focused on the above-mentioned problem and has developed a data processing device configured to allow procedures to be registered in a table format in order to simplify the registration of processing procedures.

In such a data processing device, the procedure items to be registered include "Start", which specifies the data file to be processed and opens the data file, and "Start", which specifies the data file to be processed and opens the data file, and "Start", which specifies the data file to be processed and opens the data file, and "Start", which specifies the data file to be processed and opens the data file, and "Start", which specifies the data file to be processed and opens the data file, and There is a procedure called "End" that performs the closing process.

Then, in the manual procedure on the table, the "start" and "end"
By setting , and further setting the details of the specific process (processing to be performed with the data file open) (for example, sorting, selecting) between the "start" and "end", the process can be executed. It will be done. Also, "start" and "end"
Processing procedures to be performed with the data file closed (for example, saving (processing to back up the data file), printer type setting) can be set outside the space.

Although the processing procedure is set in this way, it would be convenient if it could be confirmed in advance whether the set procedure can be executed without problems. That is, for example, it is possible to prevent data from being destroyed by executing a processing procedure that includes an error. Furthermore, if there is an error in the processing procedure, if the error procedure can be displayed and the procedure can be changed, the effort required for the processing procedure can be further improved.

The present invention was developed in view of the above circumstances, and it is possible to check in advance whether or not the set procedure can be executed without any problems, and furthermore, if there is an error in the processing procedure, the procedure of the error is displayed. The object of the present invention is to provide a data processing device that can modify the procedure.

(d) Means for Solving the Problems The data processing device of the present invention registers a series of data processing procedures, and registers the processing procedures in the data processing device that executes data processing according to the registered procedures. A start instruction means for instructing a start; a display means for displaying a table for registering a processing procedure after the start instruction from the start instruction means; and a display means for inputting the processing procedure on the table displayed on the display means. A termination instruction means for instructing the termination of registration of a processing procedure, and an error checking means for checking for errors in the input processing procedure after the termination instruction by the termination instruction means. Furthermore, the error checking means includes modification permission means for displaying a procedure determined to be an error and permitting modification of the procedure.

(e) After the registration of the action processing procedure is completed, the error checking means checks whether there is an error in the registered procedure. Furthermore, if there is an error in the procedure, the error procedure is displayed and the user is allowed to correct the procedure.

10).

As mentioned above, each function control means (Pl) of the control means (19)...
・However, as mentioned above, these do not exist in a hardware manner that can be extracted and separated, but rather exist in a software and functional manner. For example, as shown in FIGS. ) (showing an outline of the processing procedure performed by the central processing unit). Note that each function control means (Pl) can be replaced with a logic circuit as necessary.

Next, the basic operation and functions of the device of this embodiment are mainly shown in FIG.
The explanation will be made according to the flowchart of the control means (19) shown in FIG. 7 and the display screen shown in FIG.

[A] Device startup and cabinet selection When the device is first powered on, a document creation program is loaded and the initial screen shown in FIG. 4-1 is displayed on the display means (22). In the display example, nine cabinets including the sample cabinet have already been created and stored in the auxiliary storage means (24). The cursor (C1) on the horizontal line is not inverting the line in order to inform that it is possible to accept the "Create new cabinet" on the first line. In this state, cabinet selection based on step S1 in FIG. 3 is performed. If the selected cabinet is in the procedure menu mode, the process moves to procedure processing selection in step S2. If the mode is not the procedure mode, the mode shifts to the normal document selection mode, and the processes from step 53 onwards are performed.

Figure 4-2 shows an example of the document selection screen. In the display example, five files numbered 1 to 5 are created in the storage and stored in the auxiliary storage means (24), as numbered at the left end. Among the five files, files No. 1 + 2 + 4 with the paper column highlighted in black are data processing files created in data processing mode, and files with no inversion, No. 3.5, were created in document creation mode. This indicates that the file was created. Also, at the bottom of the screen are the function keys (Fl) to () at the top of the keyboard (11).
Function keys corresponding to FIO) are displayed, and for example, Fl corresponds to editing (document creation) and F6 corresponds to card design (data processing).

[B] Starting data processing mode As mentioned above, when a cabinet is selected, the document selection screen shown in Figure 4-2 is displayed, and in its initial state, the horizontal cursor (C1) is set to 11! The NnO line is highlighted in black to notify that it is possible to accept new document creation for co. In this state, document selection based on step S3 in FIG. 3 is performed. This document is created in the data processing mode, so when the function key (F6) for selecting data processing from the menu item at the bottom of the display screen is pressed, it is card processing and it is determined that new creation is required in step S9. The display screen changes to that shown in FIG. 4-3, and a window is displayed in the lower right frame requesting input of the document name, date, etc. (step 510). In this way, when you press the execution key (!Jl) after entering the document name, date, etc. in the lower right frame of the multi-window screen (Figure 4-4), you can create the document that was previously loaded. The program is disabled and a data processing program is loaded in its place. As a result, the data processing mode is started and the display screen is 4-5.
Switching to the figure, the process moves to step 511, a card design routine.

[C] The inner surface of the card design in Figure 4-5 is a screen corresponding to one blank page in the document creation mode, and the cursor (C2) can be moved freely within one blank page, and input from the input means (21) A document creation method (P
Using the function 52), it is possible to design using the same operations as in the document creation mode. At the bottom of both sides of the display, function keys are displayed for specifying the data type (characters, numbers, etc.) of the item to be input. Now, as shown in Fig. 4-10, an address book card consisting of five items such as name, address, telephone, age, and date of birth is designed based on the detailed flowchart of the card design routine (step 511) in Fig. 7. explain.

Figure 4-5: The cursor is set to full-width in step S32, and the cursor is displayed at the set size! ! (Step 533) is displayed. FIG. 4-6 shows that in step S34, a card image consisting of item names such as ``name'', ``address'', and ``telephone'' is created by the function of the document creation means (P52) by inputting keys such as kana keys and ``key line'' keys. With this, the definition of the item position for ``Name'' and ``Address°'' has been completed, and the item position definition for ``Telephone'' is in the middle of definition. To explain the definition of the "Phone" item, first place the cursor (C2) at the start position of the definition of the "Telephone" item, for example, and press the two-letter function key (Fl) for card definition. Step S35 When you move the cursor using the cursor key (SW2'), the character data input range (R) is indicated by the length of the cursor, as shown in the "Telephone" item field in Figure 4-6. At the same time, it is displayed at the bottom of the screen that the input (definition) range is 15 full-width characters, such as 15 full-width characters in character item position definition two-pronged character count.

If the item position definition regarding the telephone, that is, the data input range and number of characters indicated by the cursor, is acceptable, press the execution key (SWI) to proceed from step 836 to step S.
Step 37 sets the cursor size in the cursor size register, and step 538 sets the setting range (R
) changes to a character x' with a bright line (Z) and the size set in the cursor register (Figure 4-7).

In this state, °X゛ indicating character data is 15
Characters such as "X" are displayed in 15 words (16 bits/word), and a bright line (Z) is attached below each "X". Character code data consists of an attribute part such as size, a JIS code part, and an extension part including brightness bits and character modification information (one word each), of which the brightness bit (
1 bit) is set to °l". The same bit is set to 1".
If , a bright line (Z) is added to the character when displayed, and if it is 0, the bright line (Z) is erased. In this way, the item position definition for the item name "telephone" is provisionally registered. Step S3
If the cancel key is pressed in step 6, the process returns to step S33, and if another key is pressed, the process remains in step S36.

Next, when step S38 is finished, the process returns to step S33 and the cursor key (SW2) is operated to move the cursor to a predetermined position.
After creating the card image part of ``Age'' using the function of the document creation means, place the cursor (C2) at the definition start position of the ``Age'' item, and then select the card definition: numerical function key (F2). Then, step S39→S
40→S41 routine, step S35→S36→S
The hypothetical family of numeric items is executed in the same manner as the routine for character items in No. 37. The difference in step S42 from step 528 is that the characters displayed are °X indicating that they are character items.
Instead of °, this is the point N゛ indicating that it is a numerical item.

Next, the specification of date and time items will be explained. Step S43
As shown in FIG. 4-8, the user moves the cursor next to the date of birth and inputs actual data for the desired date and time. Next, in step S34, the cursor is moved to the starting position of that value and the function key (F3) for "Card Definition 2 Date and Time" is selected. Since the cursor position is inverted, the date and time data is inverted in step S44 (FIGS. 4-9), and then the execution key is pressed in step S45. The control unit automatically recognizes a pre-prepared date and time pattern from the Chinese character part of the inverted area in step S46. Then, replace the numeric parts with alphabetic characters that represent each type.

Then, in step S47.548, the inversion is removed from the inverted character string, a bright line (Z) is added, it is written to the text memory, and it is redisplayed (Figure 4-10).
. Table 1 shows the date and time patterns prepared in advance. The reason why the method of specifying date and time is different from that of text and numerical items is that there are various patterns for date and time, and if the device of the present invention uniquely determines a pattern, it would go against the operator's intention. You cannot define date and time items until you enter . After completing the settings for each item, press the end key (Fl9) of the input means (21).
When you press , two large non-inverted function keys are displayed on the left and right at the bottom of the screen as shown in Figure 4-11, and you can select one of the left half (Fl) to (F5) keys of the input means. When the button is pressed, it is determined in step S12 in FIG. 3 that the card design is finished, and the process moves to step 513, an item management table setting routine. Here, the definition information for each item is set in the item management table (F8) as shown in Figure 6 (details will be described later), and if no item definition is made in step S14, a table setting error is determined, and if there is no error. Then, the process moves to step S15. If it is determined in step 514 that there is an error, the process returns to step Sll. In step S12, function keys (F6) to (
If any one of FIC)) is pressed, card definition is canceled and the process returns to step S3.

[D] In the record creation step S15, only the characters "x" and N' with bright lines are erased on the display screen shown in FIGS. 4-10, and in step 516, a blank card containing only the item name is displayed. In step 517, the cursor (C2) is positioned at the beginning of the first input item area. Also, at the bottom right corner of the screen, not only the cursor position but also the number of cards being inputted are displayed (No. 4-1).
Figure 2).

When inputting data, the cursor (C2) can only move in the item area set in the card design (the area where X or N was located), and the cursor size is automatically changed to the defined character size. In addition, in the character field, you can input any kanji, kana characters, numbers, etc. using kana-kanji conversion, and the number of input characters is 16.
The data is stored in 16-bit JIS code, but for numeric items, only the numeric keys of input means (1) are accepted, and only a string of numbers can be entered, and the input data is in 16-bit JIS code.
It is stored as a 4-bit BCD code with a different code system.

When the input of each item is completed in steps 518 and 519, the display screen as shown in Fig. 4-13 is displayed and when the next screen key (F16) of the input means (21) is pressed, the screen changes to the fourth page.
-14 As shown in Figure 14, a new blank card is created based on step s20, and the second card is displayed, and step S17. Return to S18 and perform 2 as shown in Figure 4-15.
Item data is entered in the form of a second card. In this way, steps S17-S18-s19-s17-s1
By repeating the loop from 8 to S20, an arbitrary number of card-type address book data (one sheet per item) is created. In this embodiment, 12 cards have been created as shown in the 122nd card in Figure 4-16.
54) automatically switches from the previous card-format screen showing each item one page to a list displaying each item one line, as shown in FIG. 4-17.

Next, in the list display, entry or modification of item data is accepted in step S25. In case of amendment, No. 4-
As shown in Figure 18, when you move the cursor (C2) to the field of item data, character input nA (Ll) is displayed at the bottom of the screen, move to the item you want to modify and enter the corresponding character input field (Ll).
) by inputting the correct item data using the input means (21) using a word processor touch.

Items modified in this way are the same as modifying item data in card format, even though they are displayed in a list. That is, in step 826 the display switching key (
When F1a) is pressed, the screen returns to the card display format with the modified contents as shown in FIG. 4-19 (S28).

Further, when the down arrow key (SW2) is pressed in step S26, card Nn13 is pressed in step S27 (not shown).
A column is automatically additionally displayed, and by inputting item data here, additional creation of a new record (card) is executed in the list display state.

[E] Record Processing Next, returning to FIG. 3, select processing will be described as an example of record processing in a data processing file consisting of 12 input records. Step S18
Then, press the select key (F15) and the screen will be 4-20.
Step S21 of accepting selection conditions instead of the diagram
Move to. Record processing such as selection and sorting,
All the set conditions for various data processing can be registered in the auxiliary storage means (24), and can be recalled and executed as needed.

In step S21, it is possible to select either to register and execute a new condition, to call and execute an already registered condition, or to execute the input condition without registering it. For example, in FIG. 4-20, the cursor (C3) has highlighted "*Do not register conditions" to inform that it is acceptable to execute the input conditions without registering them. Here, the process can be selected by moving the inverted cursor (C3) using the cursor movement key (SW2) and pressing the execution key (SWI). If you move the cursor to "★Do not register condition" or "★Register new condition" and press the execution key (SWI), the process will proceed to step S22.Move the cursor to the already registered condition name and press the execution key (SWI).
), the recalled conditions will be stored in the auxiliary storage means (24).
After being read from the condition management table (T4) and set in the condition memory (M4), the process moves to step S23.

In step S22, a condition name input screen is displayed at the bottom of the display screen as shown in FIG. 4-21, and the condition name of the process can be input. In Figure 4-22, the condition input field (
In order to search for a record whose address is Osaka in L2), input "Osaka*" using the input means (21) using a word processor touch. "*" is a prefix match operator that indicates that any character after Osaka can be used. When you have finished entering the conditions, press the execute key (
By pressing (SWI), you can change the type, length, and
The number of condition items, etc. are written to the condition management table (T4), and the condition data is written to the condition memory (M4).

In step 521, if an instruction to register and execute the conditions is input and the process moves to step S22, the data in the condition management table (T4) and condition memory (M4) are written to the auxiliary storage means (24). When the process returns to step 521, it can be called again. In step S23, a selection process is executed by the record processing means (P55) based on the contents of the condition management table (T4) and the condition memory (M4). In this embodiment, there are five records that match the above selection conditions, and to view them in a list, press the display switching key (F1a) in step 518.
It is displayed as shown in Figure 4-23, and the display switching key (F1
If you do not press a), you can view the cards one by one in card format.

If you do not need the results of such a selection process (or want to save all 12 input records, press the selection release key)
Selection is canceled by pressing F17). Next, by pressing the end key (F19) in step 818, the fourth
-24 The screen shown in Figure 24 is displayed, and in step 24, the document name, author name, and date are displayed in the window again. If the displayed content is correct, press the execute key (SWI), and after inputting the corrected items such as the document name and date (step 517), press the execute key (SWI) to display the "Address Book" The data processing file is closed and the process returns to step S3. Of course, it is possible to separately create a new data processing file using only the selected records without pressing the selection release key (Fi7).

In addition to such selection, data processing may include sorting and conditional search using logical operators such as AND and OR. For example, a search is performed using the conditional expression [Address=Osaka Prefecture*] AND [Age>30 years old].

[F] Structure of data processing file One data processing file created in this way stores the card image of the "address book" line by line as a series of character data in the text memory (M2), and stores multiple record data (each Records (consisting of multiple item data) are stored in the record memory (M3) in item categories as shown in Figure 5. Information on where to embed each item of the record in the card image and other definition information are stored in the sixth section. It is stored in (T8) as shown in the figure.

(Leaving space below) [G] Detailed explanation of the implementation example of the procedure function (1) Outline of the procedure function A procedure is a procedure that registers a series of processes. It is a function that automatically executes the process of
As shown in the procedure file in Figure 9-11, single functions that can be executed on this data processing device are sequentially described in records in list format, and are executed sequentially in the order of the records written. It is a function that obtains results. When the procedure record in the same figure is executed, the first record (0001)
Processing is performed in order from That is, first, the "sales slip" file is copied to the save cabinet (this is done to prevent file data from being lost due to processing failure). Next, open the "Sales slip" file and receive the message "Please enter data"
Display. Then, a new card is displayed on the screen.

After completing the card input, select the condition "sales slip for [month]" and finish by clicking "Save".

In addition, this function allows a procedure file that has already been written and stored in the auxiliary storage device to generate results equivalent to those obtained when an operator instructs a data processing device to sequentially execute a series of functions. You can get it just by calling. Therefore, the operator does not have to memorize complicated processing contents and perform operations in the order, and can easily execute a series of processing without errors.

(2) Procedure design Next, the procedure design operation and function of the device of this embodiment will be mainly explained in Section 8-1.
This will be explained with reference to the flowcharts of the control means (19) shown in FIGS. 1 to 8-6 and the display screen example shown in FIG.

The procedure is displayed in the form of a list as shown in FIG. 9-2, and the procedure can be input on the screen. In the figure, fixed information such as frame information of the procedure format, number of characters in each column, number of records, and current information are stored in the procedure record management table (T5), and each record (0001
, 0002, . . . ) is stored in the procedure record memory (M5). In the procedure mode, each information is stored in the table (T5) and the memo IJ.
It is called from (M5) and displayed in a list format.

Each line of record number item (0001,0002,...
) can set processing functions and associated condition information, and each line constitutes one procedure (record).

In this embodiment, the items that can be set in the code are limited to four: (1) function, (2) condition name, (2) entry, and (2) no-no-nel. However, it goes without saying that the items may be changed as necessary.

Here, "function" refers to the main functions (for example, sorting, selecting) that can be used in data processing, and the function of each record is set in the "function" column. "Condition" refers to the conditions for executing the function set in the function window, such as selection conditions (OX section staff, data for month 0, etc.) and sort conditions (age order, type of employment, etc.). , If necessary, declare in the "Condition" column of each record which of the preset conditions the process will be executed under (in this example, the specific conditions are set directly in the "Condition" column). (instead of setting the condition name for the condition you have set in advance). In the "Entry" column, items other than those to be entered in the condition column, such as a file name and a message, are set. Furthermore, in the "Panel" column, a correspondence is declared when quoting the content of the condition (date, etc.) from the panel.

[A1 Start of procedure design In step S8 of FIG. 3, by selecting procedure design, the procedure design means (P58) is called and the procedure design is started.

If it is determined in step S49 of FIG. 8-1 that it is a new creation,
By inputting the document name, date, etc. as shown in Figure 9-1 and pressing the execution key (SWl), the screen shown in Figure 9-2 will appear, allowing you to design a new procedure file (step 55).
0). If a partially designed procedure file is selected, the procedure data is read from the auxiliary storage means (24) to the procedure record management table (T5) and procedure record memory (M5) and displayed. You can make corrections/changes/additions with .

CB) Procedure Design When procedure design is started as described above, a procedure design screen is displayed as shown in FIG. 9-2, and a cursor (CB) is displayed to indicate the item to be edited. In procedure design,
Cursor (CB) on any of the above 4 items (function, condition name, entry, panel) and record number.
can be moved. And this cursor (CB)
The functions that can be designed differ depending on the device. In FIG. 9-2, it is reversed to show that the design can be made for record numbers.

[C'l Edit function item At step 551 in Figure 8-1, press the cursor (CB)
If it is determined that the position is at the function item as shown in FIG. 9-3, the process moves to step S52 in FIG. 8-7 and waits for key input. When the execution key (SWI) or any of the function keys (Fl) to (F5) is pressed, the function is registered or rewritten, and it is determined in step S55 whether the function can be rewritten. This judgment is made in other entry fields of that record (#9A of "Conditions" and "Entry")
This is done depending on whether or not a procedure is set. That is,
Procedures and “Conditions” or “Entry” entered in the “Function” column
The procedures entered in the column are closely related (dependent) in order to correctly execute the process. Therefore, if only one of them is rewritten, the correct dependent relationship will be broken and an unexecutable record will be set. Rewriting the function is prohibited, whereas rewriting is permitted if no procedure is set.

If it is determined in S55 that rewriting is not possible, the process directly returns to step S52. If it is determined that it is possible, then in step S56, it is determined whether the state of the record where the cursor (C3) is located is inside or outside the start and end.

Here, "start" refers to opening a data file (card type data file), and "end" refers to closing the opened data file.

The series of processing in the procedure file is divided into a part that describes opening the data file to be processed and performing processing on the file, and a part that performs processing without opening the file. It will be done. The former part is called the inside of the start/end, and the latter part is called the outside of the start/end, and the functions that can be selected and registered in each part are different. If it is determined in step S56 that it is outside the start and end points, the process proceeds to step S58 as shown in Figure 9-3, and if it is determined that it is inside, the process moves to step S57 and the respective positions can be selected and registered as shown in Figure 9-6. Display the function menu. Various functions are stored in the procedure record management table (T5), and only the corresponding functions are read out and displayed based on the inside and outside determination results. In either case, press the cursor (C4) to select the function menu.
is displayed and, for example, in FIG. 9-3, it is inverted to indicate that the procedure panel function can be selected.

In step S59, move the cursor (C4) to the function to be registered using the cursor movement key (SW2), select the function in step S60 by pressing the execution key (SWI), and store the function in the procedure record memory (M5). Register.

In step 561, the type of selected function is determined. A unique number is assigned to each function, and the types include a start, an end, a function with a condition, and a function with an entry. Furthermore, regarding association with panels, there are two types: those that are possible and those that are not.

If the "Start/End" function is selected in step S59, the process moves to step S62, and a display as shown in Figure 9-4 is displayed, displaying the name of the card to be opened (card type data file) and the termination process (whether to save or not). , and the card name when saving). After inputting the card name and termination process from the input device (21), step S63
As shown in Figure 9-5, three records in which start, blank, and end functions are registered are created in this order, and the procedure record memory (M5) and procedure record management table (T5) are updated. At the same time, the cursor (C3) is moved to the beginning of the blank record (0003). In this way, a start and an end are always a pair, and the start and end of another procedure must not be between the start and end, and there may be a start and no end, or an end and a start. A procedure that does not exist will result in an error and cannot be executed, so creating a procedure record for such a combination is not possible.

In step 559, if a function that requires a condition, such as "select", is selected, the process moves to step S67; if a function that requires an entry, such as "message", is selected, the process moves to step S73, and each automatically "Conditions"
and move on to "Enter" input.

In step S52, the function key (F6)
If any of ~ (FIO) is pressed, the function will be deleted,
In step S53, it is determined whether the function can be deleted. This determination is made in the same manner as in step S55. In other words, if a procedure is set in the "Conditions" or "Entry" column of the record, deletion of the function is prohibited.
On the other hand, if no procedure is set, deletion of the function is permitted. If it is determined in step 553 that deletion is possible (if no condition information is set), the process moves to step S54, where the function where the cursor (C3) is located is deleted, and the blank function is stored in the procedure record memory (M5). Write. In step S52, the execution key (SW
I) and function keys (Fl) to (FIO) (for example, line feed key (SW4)) are keys that should be processed in common regardless of the position of the cursor (C3), and the 8th - The process moves to step 8108 in FIG.

CD3 Edit condition name item At step S51 in Figure 8-1, press the cursor (C3)
If it is determined that the position is in the condition name item, the process moves to step S64 in FIG. 8-2, and it is determined whether the function registered in the record is a function that requires a condition.

If it is determined that the function does not require conditions (card input, -view input, etc.), the process moves to step S66, where key input is performed manually, followed by common processing regardless of the position of the cursor (C3), Figure 8-6. The process moves to step 5108.

If it is determined in step S64 that the function (sort, select, etc.) requires certain conditions, the process waits for key human power in step S65. When the execution key (SWI) or 1 is pressed, the condition is changed/registered when any of the function keys (Fl) to (F5) is pressed, and it should be opened during the processing of the record in step S67. The data file is retrieved from the procedure record memory (M5) and the conditions registered in the file are displayed as shown in Figure 9-7. In the example shown in Figure 9-7, the function is "Select", the data file opened at this time is "Sales slip", and the 1/4 window lists the condition bases that have already been registered. Displayed. The cursor (C4) is inverted to indicate that the first condition base, ``January sales slip'', can be selected. In step 368, the cursor movement key (SW2
) to move the cursor (C3) to the condition group to be registered and then press the execution key (SWI) to store the condition group selected in step S69 in the procedure record memory (M5). register.

In step S65, function keys (F6) to (Fl)
If any of o) is pressed, the condition is deleted, and in step S70 it is determined whether there is already a registered condition, and if there is, the condition group is deleted from the procedure record memory (M5) in step 571. do. The display will be as shown in Figure 9-8, with the message "
Error (no condition)" is displayed. Step 565
In step 8108 of FIG. 8-6, if it is neither the execution key (SWI) nor the function keys (Fl) to (FIO), it is a key that should be commonly processed regardless of the position of the cursor (C3). Processing moves to .

[E] Edit entry In step 551 of Figure 8-1, move the cursor (C3)
If it is determined that the position is at the entry, the eighth
-3 The process moves to step S72, and it is determined whether the function registered in the record is a function that requires entry. If it is determined that it is not a function that does not require entry (ordering, numbering, etc.), the process moves to step S74, where key input is performed, followed by common processing regardless of the position of the cursor (C3), step 5108 in Figure 8-6. Move.

If it is determined in step S72 that the function requires entry (start/end, card input, etc.), the process waits for key input in step S73. When the execution key (SWI) is pressed, the entry is changed/registered, and the function is changed, for example, as shown in Figure 9=29.
This corresponds to the case of "Save", in which the document cabinet and document to be saved are selected in step S75, and a new entry process is registered in step S76 as shown in FIGS. 9-10.

When a conversion key (SW3) such as "Kanji conversion" or "No conversion" is pressed, it is determined in step S77 whether a selection option has been input. For example, if the function of the card is "record entry" as shown in Figure 9-11, the entry process is "new card" (displays a new card first) or "
9-11, 9-1 by pressing the conversion key (SW3).
The display at the bottom of the screen changes as shown in Figure 2, and the process goes to step S7.
8, it is registered in the procedure record memory (M5).

When a character key is pressed in step S73, step S7
In step 9, it is determined whether a character string is being input. For example, the 9th
−13 As shown in Figure 13, the function of the record is “message”
In this case, the entry process is character string input, and step S8
At 0, the character string is registered in the procedure record memory (M5). In step S65, the execution key (SWI),
If neither the conversion key (SW3) nor the character key is pressed,
This is a key that should be commonly processed regardless of the position of the cursor (C3), and the process moves to step 5108 in FIG. 8-6.

[F] Editing the record number item At step S51 in Figure 8-1, move the cursor (C3)
If it is determined that the position is in the record number field (see FIG. 9-2), the process moves to step S81 in FIG. 8-4 and waits for key input.

(i) When the insert key is pressed in insert step 581, a blank record is inserted, and the number of records is input in step S82 as shown in FIGS. 9-14.

In Figure 9-14, three records are instructed to be inserted (
(One line corresponds to l record). Then step S
At 83, select a blank record (blank line) and move the cursor (C3)
It is inserted after the record indicated by , and the display is as shown in Figures 9-15. At this time, a blank record is inserted at the relevant position on the procedure record memory (M5).

(i) Deletion Deletion of records and storage of records as described below cannot be performed beyond "start" and "end". this is,
The procedure is as if the data file was opened by starting and ending! ! ! The process is divided into a closed state (inside the start and end) and a closed state (outside), and if there remains a state in which the start is performed before the end, this state cannot be managed correctly.

To explain with reference to the explanatory diagram of range specification in FIG. 11, for example, when specifying a range that spans the outside and inside of the start and end as shown by arrows 100 to 102, or
As shown in ~104, if either the start or end range is not specified, deletion or memory cannot be performed. On the other hand, there are no restrictions when specifying a range that does not include the start and end, as shown in arrows 105 to 109, or when specifying a range from start to end inside the start and end, as shown in arrow 110. .

Specifically, when the delete key is pressed in step S81,
Deletion of multiple records (displayed as row deletion),
In step S84, the range to be deleted is designated as shown in Figures 9-16 (the record to be deleted is highlighted).

Subsequently, in step S85, the specified range of records is deleted from the procedure record memory (M5), and the ninth record is deleted from the procedure record memory (M5).
-17 The display will be as shown in Figure 17.

(City) - When the character insertion key is pressed in step S81, a blank record is inserted immediately before the record indicated by the cursor (C3) in step S86.

(iv) - When the character deletion key is pressed in step S81, it is determined in step S87 whether the function registered in the record where the cursor (C3) is located is "start" or "end". will be held. If it is neither "start" nor "end", in step 588 one record is deleted from the procedure record memory (M5). When it is determined in step S87 that the function is "start" or "end",
A warning message is issued and the process returns to step S81 without doing anything. At this time, the relevant record is stored in the procedure record memory (M5).
has not been deleted from.

This is because, as mentioned above, "start" and "end" must always be a pair, and it is prohibited to delete just one record that has the "start" and "end" functions. If you delete only one of "start" and "end", the data file may remain open, or if you perform processing such as sorting with the data file closed,
This is to prevent such error conditions from occurring.

(v) Memory When the memory key is pressed in step S81, the memory is for a plurality of cards, and in step S89 the range to be memorized is specified as shown in FIGS. 9-18.

Subsequently, in step 590, the designated range of cards is transferred from the procedure record memory (M5) to the memory buffer (M7). At the same time, the number of cards in the memorized range and whether the outside of the start/end of the range is inside are set in the memory buffer management table (T7). For example, when a range is specified as shown in FIG. 9-18, it is outside the start/end, and when a range is specified as shown in FIG. 9-19, it is inside the start/end. Further, as described above, range specification in memory is also subject to the same restrictions as deletion.

In this embodiment, the memory buffer (M7) and memory buffer management table (T7) are stored in the main storage means (2o), but there is no problem in storing them in the auxiliary storage means (24). It should be obvious.

(vi) Memory Call When calling a memorized record, the functions that can be used inside and outside the start and end are different, so the position that can be called is restricted depending on the contents stored in memory. In other words, memory performed inside the start and end (limited to those that do not include the start and end) can be called only inside the start and end, and memory performed outside the start and end can only be called outside the start and end. I can do it. However, as indicated by the arrow 110 in FIG. 11, the memory from the start to the end is complete in itself, so it can be called outside and inside the start and end. However, in order to call it internally, other procedures must be temporarily interrupted to process that procedure, so it is necessary to separately prepare an execution memory for this purpose.

When the memory recall key is pressed in step S81, a record stored in memory is recalled. Step S
91, records are registered in the memory buffer, and the registered records can be accessed using the cursor (C3).
Determine whether it is possible to insert after the record located at.

In order to be able to insert, it is necessary that the start/end inside/outside states of the record where the cursor (c3) is located and the record registered in the memory buffer (M7) match. This is because, as mentioned above, in this embodiment, the types of functions that can be registered in the function range are different between inside and outside the start/end.For example, the record where the cursor (C3) is located is outside the start/end However, if the content of the memory buffer is a record registered inside the start/end, it is determined in step s91 that the position cannot be called, and a warning message is displayed as shown in Figure 9-20. Return to step 581.

In this embodiment, the state of the record where the cursor (c3) is located can be determined by scanning the procedure record memory (M5) back and forth from the position of the record, and the state of the record stored in the memory buffer (M7). is checked from the contents of the memory buffer management table (T7). If it is determined in step 591 that the position can be called, the memory buffer (M7
) to the procedure record memory (
M5) after the relevant record.

In step 581, if it is not an execution key (!Vl), a conversion key (SW3), or a character key, it is a key that should be commonly processed regardless of the position of the cursor (C3), as shown in FIG. 8-6. Processing moves to step 5108.

[G) Record Range Designation FIG. 8-4 The process of designating a plurality of record ranges performed in steps S84 and S89 will be explained with reference to FIG. 8-5. When specifying a range, use the table area shown in FIG. 10 in the procedure record management table (T5). To explain the table in Fig. 10, the record number (T51) where the cursor is located is the cursor (C3).
The last registered record number (T52) is a storage unit that holds the record number of the procedure registered in the procedure record memory (M5). Starting record number (T
53) is a storage unit that holds the record number where the cursor (c3) was located when the range specification started, and the state of the range start record (T54) is the state of the record specified by the range start record number (T53). It is a storage unit that holds the state whether the state is inside or outside the start/end.

First, in step 593, the range start record number (T5
3) Substitute the record number (T51) where the cursor is located and store the state of the start record in the range start record state (T54). In step S94, the display of the record indicated by the record number (T51) where the cursor is located is inverted as shown in FIG. 9-21 to notify that it is included in the range. In step S95, it is determined what the function of the number indicated by the range start record number (T53) is. If the function of the record is "start", the procedure record memory (M5) is scanned backward in step S96, a record in which the "end" function is registered is searched, and the record number (T51) where the cursor is located is scanned backwards. The record number is stored in , and in step S97, the record with the record number (T51) where the cursor is located is displayed in reverse as shown in FIG. 9-22. Next, in step 5100, the records from the range start record number (T53) to the record number where the cursor is located (T51) are determined as the range,
For example, in the case of range specification performed in step S84, records between this period are deleted in step S85. If the function of the start record is "end", it is determined in step S98 that the range cannot be specified from this record, and the ninth--
Display a warning message as shown in Figure 23, and proceed to step S81.
Returning to step S84, for example, in the case of range specification performed in step S84, the deletion function is disabled.

If the function of the start record is neither "start" nor "end", the process moves to step 599 and waits for key input.

If the execute key (SWI) is pressed, step 5100
Transfer to. When the downward cursor movement key (SW2) is pressed, the record number (T51) where the cursor is located is compared with the last record number (T52) in step 5101, and if the record number (T51) where the cursor is located is smaller (i.e. (If the record indicated by (T51) is not the final record) In step 5102, it is determined whether the state of the record with the number (T51)+1 is the same as the state stored in the state of the range start record (T54). A judgment is made. If they are the same, that is, no record state transition occurs, step 5108 advances the record number (T51) where the cursor is located by one, and step 5104 advances the record number (T51) where the cursor is located as shown in Figure 9-24.
) to indicate that it is within the range. In step 5 IOI, the record number (T51) where the cursor is located is the last record number (T5
2) If it is determined that they are greater than but equal, and if it is determined that an upper body transition occurs in step 5102, then
A warning message is displayed as shown in Figure 9-25, and the process returns to step 'S99, where the downward cursor movement key (SW2) is pressed.
becomes invalid. When the upward cursor movement key (SIV2) is pressed in step S99, the record number (T51) at which the cursor is located is compared with the range start record number (T53), and the record number (T51) at which the cursor is located is compared. is large (that is, if the record indicated by the record number (T51) with the cursor is not the range start record), the record indicated by the record number (T51) with the cursor is removed from display in step 5106, and the record with the cursor is removed in step 5107. Number (T
51) is moved back one step.

[H) Common Processes Processes that are commonly performed no matter which of the five items the cursor is placed on will be explained with reference to FIG. 8-6. For example, the 8th
This corresponds to the case where neither the execution key (SWI) nor the function keys (Fl to FIO) are pressed at step S52 in FIG.

(i) When the line feed key is pressed, if the end is set to the record following the record (line) where the cursor is located, a blank record is automatically inserted and the cursor is moved to the record. This is because when the start is set in a procedure, the end is also automatically set (see Figure 9-5), reducing the effort of inserting blank records using the insert key and improving work efficiency. This is to make it happen.

In step 5108, it is determined what key was pressed. When the line feed key (SW4) is pressed, the type of record on which the cursor (c3) is located at that time is checked in step 5109 by referring to the procedure record management table (T5) and the procedure record memory (MS), and the record is If it is the last record registered in the procedure record memory (MS), a blank record with the next number is added to the procedure record memory (MS) and the procedure record management table (T5) is changed (step 5 LIO )
. Furthermore, in step 5113, a cursor (C3) is displayed at the beginning of the added record as shown in FIG. 9-26.

If it is determined in step 5109 that the function of the next record is "end", a blank record is inserted between the record where the cursor (C3) was located when the line feed key (SW4) was pressed and the next record. and procedure record memory (M

Step Sl 11). Furthermore, in step 5113, the ninth
-27 Place the cursor (c) at the beginning of the record inserted as shown in the figure.
3) Display. In step 5109, the line feed key (SW) is pressed.
If the record where the cursor (C3) is located when 4) is pressed is neither the last record nor immediately before "end",
In step 5112, the cursor (C3) is moved to the next record.

(ii) In the end step 5108, the pressed key is the end key (Fll
), the screen in Figure 9-28 is displayed and step 5
In step 114, the process waits for input for the next process.

When the execution key (!l1l) or the function key (Fl) is pressed in step 5114, saving is performed with error checking, and the process moves to step 5115, where the document name, author name, and date are displayed in the window again. If the displayed content is correct, press the execute key (SWI), and after inputting the corrected items such as the document name and date, press the execute key (SWI) to proceed to step 811.
At step 6, a grammar check (checking whether the procedure is designed to be executed correctly) automatically starts, and the record number 1 registered in the procedure record memory (MS) is automatically started.
A grammar check is performed between the record and the last record, and the display as shown in Figure 9-29 is performed during this time. In step 5l17, it is determined whether there is a grammar error, and if there is no error, the procedure file is closed and the process returns to step s3. Step 511
If it is determined in step 7 that there is a grammar error, step 5118
In order to ask the operator whether to save it as it is or to go back to designing the procedure file, the screen is displayed as shown in FIG. 9-30 and the screen waits for a key. When the execution key (SWI) is pressed, the cursor (C3) is moved to the record in which the syntax error has occurred in step 5121, and the 9-3
The screen is displayed as shown in FIG. 1, and the process returns to step S51 to edit the procedure again. When the end key (Fl9) is pressed in step 8118, the procedure file is saved including the syntax error, and the process returns to step S3.

When the function key (F6) is pressed in step 5114, step 51
19, a grammar check is performed in the same manner as in step 8116. In step 5120, the previous step 511 is checked.
If the result of the grammar check in step 9 is determined and there is a grammar error, the cursor is moved to the record where the grammar error has occurred in step 5121, and the process returns to step S51 to start editing the procedure again.

When the function key (F5) is pressed in step 5114, the file is saved without error checking, and the process moves to step 5122, where the document name, author name, and date are displayed in the window again. If the displayed content is correct, press the execution key (SWI
), and after inputting corrected items such as the document name and date to be corrected, the execution key (SWI) is pressed to save the procedure record and return to step S3.
