The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the configuration of the present invention, and FIGS. 2 to 5 show conventional stored contents of user resources and various screen images when the stored contents are analyzed and displayed on a display. Is a display example of a conventional user resource storage image, FIG. 4 is a diagram of item basic information of a conventional user resource, and FIG. 5 is a diagram of item detailed definition of a conventional user resource. Further, FIG. 6 is a view showing a data transfer relationship by correspondence between a conventional user resource and a package record item when performing a file arrangement, and FIG. 7 is a view showing a transfer destination record document.

An embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 1 is an analysis unit 1 for reading a conventional file registration collection 7 and an information input unit 2.
, A generating means 3 for generating a package file registration text 9, a transferring means 4, an outputting means 5, and a display 1
2 and display means 6 for displaying information. The analysis means 1 displays the stored item information of the conventional file collection original text 7 by the display means 6 on the display 1.
The process of analyzing the information to be displayed on the screen 2 is performed. The information input means 2 is for inputting the link information with the package record item for the item displayed on the display 12 by the display means 6. The input information input from the information input means 2 includes item editing order, attributes, number of digits, repetition and redefined items. The display means 6 formats and displays the information judged by the analysis means 1 on the display as described above. The generation means 3 creates a file registration collection original text according to the package record specifications based on the information obtained by the information input means 2. The transfer means 4 transfers data from the record of the input file to the record of the output file,
The information is transferred by the information designated by the information input means 2.
At this time, if the input and output images are different due to the number of digits etc., they are transferred according to the COBOL data editing rule. The output means 5 outputs the document of the package record specification.

Next, these means will be described in detail. It is assumed that the package record item information of the file registration collection original text information shown in FIG. 2 is registered as shown in FIG. Of these, the file registration collection original text is level NO, item name,
The item attribute, the item digit number, and the item definition are analyzed and displayed on the display 12 as in the left column 44 shown in FIG. As a display method, the item names of the original file library are displayed in the order of definition. For group items, the attribute is "U".
Is displayed. With respect to the item detail definition information not displayed in FIG. 4, by pressing a key defined in advance in the corresponding item column, a display as shown in FIG. 5 is made, and the user can select various contents from this display content. And specify the package record item information. By inputting the order 46 and the reference 47 in the right column 45 of FIG. 4, the package record item information shown in FIG. 3 is searched from this information, and the registration information is displayed in FIG. For example, if the item name 48 “item A” shown in the column 41 of FIG. 4 has the second definition order in the package file registration text, and the item name 31 is used as “employee information”. , To change the definition order to the second, change the order 46 to "2".
In order to set the item name 49 as "employee information", refer to FIG.
"1" of the reference key NO32 of is input. (As shown in FIG. 3, all the item information used in the package is registered in the information file to be searched.) As a result, when the package record item information is searched, the item name is obtained from the reference key NO 32 “1”. Information in which 31 is “employee information” and the item attribute 33 is “U” = (group item) is obtained.
It is displayed like the right column 45 of the column 41. Column 4 of Figure 4
For items 1 and 2 such as 2, 43, order 46
Is not specified. These items are recognized as items subordinate to the group item (employee information). The fact that the package record item information is not displayed for the item C in the column 50 of FIG. 4 indicates that this item is unused in the package.

In this way, the user uses the information input means 2 to input the order 46 of each item and the reference 47 based on the original text of the package file registration. It is also possible to modify the displayed package record item information in order to improve the customization in order to meet the requirements of each user. After entering all the search information, order 46 and attribute 51
Then, the original text of the package file registration is created in the library by the creating means 3 as described above. FIG. 6 shows an image of the package file registration text prepared from the information retrieved in FIG. Each line 73 in the center indicates a change in the editing order between the items in the conventional file library original text and the package file library original text. When the change contents are indicated by the item numbers in FIG. 6, the change in the editing order is shown in columns 61, 62, 63, 64, 6
As in 5, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, "item A" in column 62 is "employee information" and "item 1" in column 63 is "employee number" as the item name is changed. In column 64
“Item 2” in “Gender”, “Item B” in column 65 is “Housing Information”, “Item 3” in column 67 is “Address”, “Item 4” in column 68 is “District”, In the column 69, “item D” is in “detailed information”, in column 70, “item 5” is in “years of service”, and in column 7
"Item 6" of 1 is "final education", and "item 7" of column 72
Is changed to "annual income". Also, the item attribute 73 is changed to the attribute 75, but for example, “9” in the column 68.
Is changed to “X”, and “9” in the column 71 is changed to “X”. Although the item digit number 76 is changed to the digit number 77, for example, “08” in the column 63 becomes “06” and “0” in the column 68.
2 ”is changed to“ 01 ”and“ 08 ”in the column 72 is changed to“ 10 ”. In addition, when deleting an item, the items are arranged so that the changed item is not specified as in the field 66. Arrangement of actual file data is also performed based on the editing order of FIG. At this time, the data transfer rule is COB
Comply with OL data transfer rules. In this way, the information of the conventional file can be used in the package, but the record layout and the correction history are output as the arrangement result as a document as shown in FIG.

[0012]

As described above, according to the present invention, since the interface file data corresponding to the package can be visually created on the screen without modifying the conventional file in using the package, the user is required to have accuracy. At the same time, a sufficient improvement can be expected in terms of man-hours as well, so that productivity can be improved in system construction.
