Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a data registration device used to register data in various computers, and to update, delete, etc. the registered data.

[Prior art]

When using various computers to perform various data processing, data is generally input into the computer by having a card punched with data read by a card league, or by displaying the data on a display device such as a CRT display. This is performed by displaying an input screen, inputting and displaying data at a predetermined position on the screen by operating a keyboard, and storing these data in a storage device.

Incidentally, data is stored in a computer's storage device in units of records (a collection of multiple interrelated data elements), and each record is assigned a key to uniquely identify it. By sequentially specifying these keys, it is possible to search for specific data (actually records).

For example, as shown in Figure 13, <, 10 (IN record R
It is assumed that records 1 to RIO are stored in the storage device in a four-layer storage structure with record R1 as the top layer.

Now, when the data stored in record R7 is needed, the old record is searched by first specifying the keyword of record R1 in the highest hierarchy. As a result of the search, if record R1 exists, the keyword of record R2 is then specified, and record R4 and record R7 are similarly searched in this order, and finally the contents of record R7 are displayed on the display device. The contents of record R7 searched and displayed in this way are, for example, as shown in FIG.
The storage state in the data field of record R7 is displayed as is, in a so-called solid state. This type of data can be used directly by
It was limited to a very limited number of experts and could not be said to be widely available to the general public.

Therefore, in order to make the various data stored in a storage device widely available to the general public, it is necessary to adjust the index that indicates the content of the data and the size (number of digits, in other words, the number of digits, in other words, the size of the data number of bytes required for the data), type (type, i.e., whether it is a number or a character, and in the case of numbers, whether it is a natural number, real number, imaginary number, etc.), etc., along with the data.
Or it needs to be displayed on a data entry screen.

On the other hand, creating a data input screen for causing a computer to process data has generally required the following operations. That is, the formant when inputting data,
Specifically, we decided on the size and type, and for convenience when using the screen, we decided what kind of data the screen is for inputting, what kind of data should be input, and each data. Where should I enter it?
After determining the overall layout, the program is written step by step as a screen display program, and inputted by punching onto a card or via a display device.

The programming languages used in this case are PL/I, C0BOL, and FORTR, which are generally called high-level languages.
AN, RASIC, etc., and to be more specific, in actual program processing, it is necessary to translate (compile) the programming language into machine language, but the compiling work is usually automated. After this, it becomes possible to test the actual operation, and after repeating this test, the data input screen is finally completed.

In this way, screens for inputting data into a computer were created individually depending on the size, type, etc. of the data, so large computers (e.g. business computers) were used to process large amounts of data. It takes a considerable amount of time and effort to create a data entry screen for this purpose. Furthermore, since a program that allows a large computer to process a large amount of data usually requires many screens for data input, creating each data input screen as described above would take a considerable amount of time and time.
The reality is that it requires a lot of effort and expense.

Furthermore, the memory storage area required to store programs for screen display can be ignored, and as a result, a large amount of memory storage area is occupied for purposes other than the original purpose of storing data. There were also problems.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

Due to these circumstances, we developed a general-purpose data registration device,
Although it is conceivable to use this method, there are also the following problems in this case.

First of all, the registration area for the data entered from the screen and registered in the storage device must be created each time according to the format of the data, and even if the data is of the same type, its size may vary. The size of the registration area must be determined individually, and the headings attached to the entire screen and each data input position must be created individually corresponding to the screen and each data.

(Means for Solving Problems) The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and includes information regarding the storage location, heading, data format, etc. of each data stored in a storage device as data. By registering the data in the same storage area where general data is stored in the same format, it is possible to easily create a data input screen for data of any storage structure. , it is possible to register, update, delete data, etc. on the screen created and displayed as described above, and from now on, if you want to add new items to the screen or change the items, When a new data input screen is required, there is no need to modify or create a new program, and to compile, test, etc., as in the past, and simply find and format the data. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a general-purpose data registration device that can obtain a data input screen only by registering and changing the data.

The present invention provides a data registration device for registering a data group in a computer storage device, updating and deleting the registered data group, including an input device for inputting data, and an input device for inputting data from the input device. A display device for displaying data, a display device for storing a data group, and information regarding the storage location of each data in this data group, a heading for indicating the data content, and information regarding the type and size of the data are registered in advance. a storage device, a screen creation means for successively retrieving information regarding the heading, data type and size corresponding to the data to be registered from the storage device and displaying it on the display device; a data input/output device that performs data registration, updating, deletion, etc. by storing a data group input and displayed by the input device on the displayed screen in the storage device according to information regarding the storage location of each data; It is characterized by having the following.

〔Example〕

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described in detail below based on drawings showing embodiments thereof.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the overall configuration of a data registration device according to the present invention.

The apparatus of the present invention uses a keyboard 11 as an input device, and data input from the keyboard 11 is given to a display control device 15 via a control device 13 and displayed on a CRT display 14, which is a display device. and,
The data displayed on the CRT display 14 can be transferred to the control device 13 by operating the keyboard 11 (for example, pressing an entry key) and giving an instruction to the control device 13.
controls the data input/output device 13B and stores it in the memory 12, which is a storage device.

Conversely, data stored in the memory 12 is retrieved by the data input/output device 13B and displayed on the CRT display 14 by operating the keyboard 11 and inputting a keyword. Further, the screen creation device 13A creates a data input screen as described later.

Storage of data in the memory 12, headings for data input screens, data formats, etc., which will be described later, is performed on a record-by-record basis. That is, data is entered into data records, headings are entered into heading records, data formats are entered into formant records, and each record is entered with other records that are related to each other (data records are entered with data records). , header records are associated with header records, formatting records are associated with formatting records), or in a hierarchical relationship (when searching, the search proceeds from records in the upper hierarchy to records in the lower hierarchy), or in the same hierarchy. The data is stored in the memory 12 as a set of blocks.

Therefore, blocks that are a set of a plurality of records are also classified into blocks for data, blocks for headings, blocks for formatting, etc.

Figure 2 shows an example of this, and the block shown in Figure 18) is a block with a four-layer structure for data, with record DOI as the top layer, record D02 as the second layer, record DO3 and the same as the top layer. Do4 is placed in the third layer, record D05. D06 and 007 are the fourth layer (lowest layer), and records DO3 and D04 of the third layer and the fourth
Hierarchical records DO5, DO6, and DO7 are in the same hierarchy. The block shown in the same figure (Mountain) has a two-layer structure and is used for registering headings, formats, etc.
Record Dll is set as the top layer, and three records D12 . D13 and D14 are the second hierarchy (lowest hierarchy). Then, the heading is stored in the record DI2, the format is stored in the record D13, and the record number or variable name of the block shown in FIG. 2 (al) is stored in the record D14.

In addition to the above-mentioned records, the memory 12 also has a storage area for storing a screen creation program, which will be described later.

FIG. 3 is a format diagram of each record stored in the memory 12.

The field up to the first 32 bytes of each record is used as a label section, and the first 3 bytes of this label section are used as a 3-digit record number, and the next 10 fields (1
(up to the 3rd byte) is the 81st inch (year, month, date, and minute when the record was newly created or its contents were updated), and the next 2 bytes (up to the 15th byte) are the status (newly created or updated). Separate display), continuation <17 bytes (up to the 32nd byte) are used as the registration area for the key for record search (keyword for search), respectively.
The remaining fields are content portions, ie, fields in which data is actually stored, and the field length of this content portion varies depending on the data content of each record.

Note that the number of bytes of the label section of each record described above is just an example, and it goes without saying that the field length of the content section may be a fixed length.

The first layer record of each block (00 in the example in Figure 2)
As for the keywords registered in the label section of 1.011), the largest keyword for searching data stored in each block is used. Furthermore, the keywords registered in each label section of each record at the second level and below are directly the names of subdivided items in the same data processing, or their codes are registered as data specification identifiers (-signatures).

It should be noted that the hierarchical structure between records for data storage shown in FIG. Of course it is possible.

Next, we will discuss the processing procedure when the device of the present invention, which is a general-purpose data registration device, is used as a data registration device for simulation in the finishing management of a finishing line for seamless steel pipes, as shown in Fig. 4. This will be explained below according to the flowchart.

FIG. 5 schematically shows a data input screen when registering a loft number, which is the maximum unit that can collectively process steel pipes refined in a seamless steel pipe finishing line. This screen will be mainly described below as an example.

First, perform initial registration of headings on January 2nd.

That is, various terms necessary for data registration for steel pipe finishing management are registered as headings with keywords attached to each term. In other words, each heading is treated in the same way as data that should originally be registered in the device of the present invention,
Each is stored in a record.

In the example shown in Figure 5, the headings displayed at the top of the screen are ``Gaikei'', ``Niquat'', ``Zaishikkigouj'', etc. In other words, the outer diameter, wall thickness, and material steel material of the steel pipe to be refined. , weight and number of pipes, such as "Gaikei J1", "Zaishikkigo", "Shuuritsu", "Honsu", etc., as well as delivery date, customer, pipe type, etc.
Register them in katakana such as "Nouki", "Juyoka", "Kanshu", etc. Each of these items is stored as header data in a separate record with a keyword for identifying each item.

To explain the structure of the screen shown in Fig. 5, the part where each of the above headings is displayed is the heading part, and the format marks +, ×, and * marks (the 5th
In the figure, the part where * marks and +- are shown (details will be explained later) etc. is the data input area, and if there is already registered data, the format mark surrounded by the mouth. The data is displayed directly above the .

Also, the part surrounded by the mouth is called the data entry canilia.

Note that the cross mark indicates that numbers can be input, the X mark indicates that only letters can be input, and the * mark indicates that either numbers or letters can be input.

Furthermore, in the data input section, the left-side area labeled rln, NOJ, and F lot NOJ is used as a key part, and the other right-side area is used as a function part. A part of the key is attached to each data group on the screen (in the example shown in Fig. 5, the heading line shown in the diagram and the data entry line, ie, the opening line constitute a set of data groups). This is an area where a keyword (-nominal name) is input and displayed. On the other hand, the function section is an area where data corresponding to the keyword (-signature), ie, the outer diameter of the loft, wall thickness, etc. in the example of FIG. 5, is input and displayed. Keyword (-significance)
and the corresponding data (contents) are stored in the memory 12 as a − group.
will be registered.

Next, formants for data input are initially registered.

For example, if we take the above-mentioned "Gaikei" and "Nikuatsu" as an example, in the case of the outer diameter, the finishing ability is, for example, 0.1 m.
If the unit is less than 100 Ch gardens, the data to be input is 4 numbers (3 numbers above the decimal point, 1 number below the decimal point). In the case of wall thickness, if it is up to several tens of days in units of 1/100 W, the data to be input will be two numbers above and two below the decimal point. Therefore, as described above, the data size (number of digits, in other words, the number of bytes to be prepared for the record in which the data is registered) and type (numeric, alphabetic, etc.) are registered. Similarly, for example, if it is a delivery date, register it as a total of 6 numbers (6 bytes) using 2 numbers each for the year, month, and day, and if it is a type of steel material, register it using JIS or API.
The size and type of data are determined and registered in advance so that standard code numbers and the like can be registered. The registration of these data formats is specifically the number 9.
Format marks “+” and “×” indicate that one or more characters can be entered.

This is done using “*”.

Similar to the above-mentioned heading data, these format marks are registered in the memory 12 by being assigned keywords as format data and stored in records in the form of data.

Note that rlD-J in FIG. 5 instructs input of keywords for controlling the screen creation program described later, and rKEY-J indicates a group of keywords (conditions) for searching each record. This instructs the input of the classification number or -significance name).

Next, a specific method for initial registration of the above-mentioned headings and formants will be explained, and this process is performed by a predetermined screen creation program.

This program uses the so-called data manipulation language (DataM
When a search for an input keyword is instructed, the block or record in which that keyword is registered is searched, the data stored there is read out, and the data stored in the block or record is read. This is a program for performing operations such as storing data in a block, displaying it on a screen, and transmitting it to a computing device. Therefore, if you use this program to store headings, format marks, etc. in records in the same way as general data, you can use the same operations as when searching for data and displaying numbers, characters, etc. on the screen. It is possible to search for format marks and the like using a data manipulation language and display them on the screen, or to display them on the screen by appropriately combining them. Note that this program itself only displays data stored in blocks or records at once, so when displaying the original data, headings etc. are not displayed, and therefore the display screen is filled with numbers. It is just a list of nine characters, symbols, etc., and the operator cannot decipher the data displayed on the screen without referring to the file layout, etc.

By the way, the data on the screen shown in Fig. 5 is shown in Fig. 2 fa)
The data is stored in a data block composed of records DOI-DO7 shown in FIG. Specifically, the record D01 in the first layer serves as a label for the entire block (for example, indicating the factory division, etc.), and the record DO2 in the second layer serves as a simulation number indicating the division when performing the simulation. , the third layer record DO
3 is the work number (attached to multiple steel pipes that undergo the same processing treatment as one unit) to record D in the fourth layer.
O5 is used to store loft numbers and related information (for example, steel pipe outer diameter, wall thickness, quantity, etc.), and other records in the fourth layer have information associated with work numbers. Yes, for example record DO6
is pipe manufacturing information, and record DOT is used to group and store a group of other work numbers having the same standard and manufacturing method as the work number of record DO3.

Record 004 in the third layer shows a group of information related to the simulation number of record DO2, and other records may be added to the third layer as necessary, and this also applies to each other layer. Of course, they are similar.

Now, in order to create the data input screen shown in Fig. 5, in addition to the block constituted by the records DOI to DO7 mentioned above, the block is constituted by records D11 to D014 for registering headings, formants, etc. When creating a new screen, a block with headings, formats, etc. registered is first created.

The procedure will be explained below.

First, use the record number and condition classification number as keywords to identify and search the screen to be created (for example, for the block shown in Figure 2 (bl), record number = "Dll', condition classification number - 〇old 1") ) via the keyboard 11 to call up the screen. Note that the condition classification number means that you are about to register a heading in record DI2. 152, that is, the heading of the loft number registration processing screen shown in FIG. 5, and each heading data is sequentially input to this screen as necessary.

In contrast, the heading data to which condition classification numbers are attached are sequentially stored in the record D12, and heading data for displaying one screen worth of headings is created. In addition, when a part of the heading is changed, the heading stored in the memory 12 as described above is called up from Memo January 2, and after the necessary changes are made, the heading is stored in the memory 12 again (steps in FIG. 4). ■,■,■,■).

When registering a formant, after adding a condition category number different from the above-mentioned keyword (for example, representing the screen format of "Fil" double category number 152) as a keyword, use the same method as in the case of the above-mentioned heading. Perform the operation to perform initial registration, change, deletion, etc. in record D13 (Step ■ in Figure 4).

■,■,■). Furthermore, in order to indicate which item in the data structure each data item registered as described above corresponds to, a record number and item name are registered. To explain in response to the above explanation, the condition classification number is 'R11
'', the storage location is record D14.

With the above steps, the data for displaying the data registration screen is immediately completed.

The above-mentioned heading and format registration work will be explained with reference to the schematic diagrams of FIGS. 8 to 12 showing each display screen.

Note that FIG. 5 is an example of a screen design corresponding to this. In addition, Figure 14 shows the heading, Figure 15 shows the format, and
Figure 6 shows the area divisions of record numbers and item names, and corresponds to the field division details of records D12, D13, and D14, respectively.

If you want to register a heading like the one shown in Figure 5,
figure! As shown in a), first we need to understand the data manipulation language.
.

10 (Ident) screen for data registration via
Ifi-cation = screen identifier) and KEY are set and called.

When the screen is called up, as shown in Figure 8), the following keywords are used to find the heading block: condition classification number "Hll", data manipulation language "DMLI" for data retrieval, and record number "D11" is set to read the contents of the record Dll. FIG. 8(C) shows the screen display. The reason why the contents of the record D11 are first read in this way is to establish a parent-child relationship between the record Dll in the first hierarchy and the record D12 in the second hierarchy.

Next, in order to register the heading data in the record DI2 of the second layer, the unique name "152" of the record D12 as shown in FIG. 9 (al) (condition classification number for the loft number registration processing screen shown in FIG. 5) , the data manipulation language "DML2" that instructs the storage of data in the memory 12, the record number "012", and the contents to be stored in record 012 (shown in FIG. 5) as shown in FIG. The data input/output device 13B reads the input data (in this case, the heading of the screen shown in FIG. Store it in the record D12 set in the memory 12 (the above series of operations will be referred to as transmission hereinafter).At this time, the unique name "152" is registered as a keyword in the label section of the record D12. Since the label portion of each record has a fixed length, bytes not used for keyword registration are filled with filler.

If the contents shown in FIG. 5 are inputted in the form shown in FIG. 9), the stored contents of record D12 are stored in the form shown in FIG. 17. Note that "@" in the figure indicates a separation between each item. I would like to add here that the actual screen creation involves creating the screen layout as shown in Figure 5, then rewriting it into the format as shown in Figure 17, and calling up the screen in Figure 9 (a) while referring to this. , you can insert spaces etc. as appropriate.

By the way, when adding data items or deleting unnecessary data items to a screen that has been registered, the screen configuration will change as headings will also be added or deleted. In this case, the contents of the record D12 (as shown in FIG. 9, by first setting the unique name "152", data manipulation language, and record number of the record D12 in the second layer as shown in FIG. 9) Read out the heading of the screen in Figure 5 and display it on the screen, change or delete the parts that need to be changed or deleted as appropriate on this screen, resend, and register it in Memo January 2. (Step ■).

Next, register the data format. As a result, when the screen is displayed, data entry information is displayed in the input section on the screen. Incidentally, FIG. 15 shows the data of the data formant on the data registration screen of FIG. 5, that is, the format of the record D13 in the second layer of the formant block in which the format mark is registered.

FIG. 10 shows how to register this data format.

Although shown in FIG. 11, the procedure is almost the same as that of heading registration, that is, FIG. (in the figure) is a screen on which the contents of the record Dll in the first layer of the formatting block are displayed. In this case, Fig. 11 (a
The condition classification number of record D13 shown in l is “152.
”.If you want to register a format like the screen shown in Figure 5, enter "152" as the unique name of record D13 in the second layer as shown in Figure 11(a), and use the other settings as described above. Figure 9 (after cents as in al.
Set the format mark as shown in Figure 11 (bl),
By transmitting the data, the data is stored in the memory 12 in accordance with the layout shown in FIG.

Next, register the record number and item name.

Generally, in a data storage structure as shown in Figure 2 (al), each data block is composed of records DO1, DO2, etc., and a large number of items are stored in plurality.For example, records Regarding DO5,
This record DO5 uses loft number as a keyword, but its data items include outer diameter, wall thickness,
Material name, material symbol, weight, quantity, delivery date, customer name, code, pipe type name, code, standard code, process code,
There are a wide variety of product name codes, processing codes, accessory codes, etc. These are named as item names using a predetermined number of digits (for example, "ZAi" for material symbols),
Since it is initially registered in record D14 along with the data storage structure, in subsequent use, for example, when specifying the material symbol of record D12, "
This item can be identified using "ZAi".

Now, if there is an item that is desired to be registered or changed among the above-mentioned data items, a screen as shown in FIG. 5 may be designed. At that time, for example, if the word "Nouki" is used, then Figure 2 (a)
) It is necessary to indicate which item is stored in any of the records DOI to DO7 shown in the table. FIG. 16 is a schematic diagram showing a formant for this purpose, and if the items shown in FIG. 5 are made to correspond, the result will be as shown in FIG. 19. Here, 15 is used as the unique name of record D14.
2'' and a record number corresponding to the header and formant, the data is stored in the memory 12 in a format conforming to the layout of FIG. 16.

Now, as explained above, once the heading, format mark, number, and item name of the data input screen shown in FIG. 5 are registered, the data registration screen can be used.

First, the keyword of the data registration screen that you want to call, that is, the condition number, for example "152", the classification of new screen or registered screen (new screen / 1m, registered = "2"), the first
Keyword “1” (factory classification) of the hierarchy record.

When you input the unique name 112m (simulation number) of the second layer record using the keyboard 11,
The data input/output device 13B stores the keyword "152" from the memory 12 yen as the second layer record D12. Search for blocks registered as keywords in the label section of D13°D14, and search for each corresponding block, that is, for heading,
Each block for formano 1, record number, and item name is found and provided to the screen creation device 13A. As a result, each heading is displayed on the CRT display 14, and a format mark for data input, that is, a format mark corresponding to the size and type of data to be input, is displayed, and the data input screen is displayed on the CRT display 14. displayed on the display 14.

The screen of the CRT display 14 displayed in this manner is as shown in FIG. 5. To input data to this screen, the following operations are performed.

By operating the keyboard 11, for example, the work number,
The loft number etc. is "YYF1234".

When "5678" or the like is input, the control device 13 displays this via the display control device 15. The data is displayed superimposed on the format mark of the data entry canister as shown in FIG. Figure 6 shows loft number 56 of the steel pipe with work number YYF1234.
78 loft specifications are input as data, for example, this lot has an outer diameter of 114.3.
It shows that the shaft, wall thickness is 29.29mm, material is 5CNKB, etc.

Thereafter, after confirming that the input and displayed data is accurate, press the entry key on the keyboard 11 to indicate to the control device 13 that the input of the data has been completed, and the data will be stored in the memory 12. A simulation number is stored in record DO2 of the second layer of the data storage block, a work number is stored in record DO3 of the third layer, and a lot number is stored in record 005 of the fourth layer.

At this time, record D01. Data corresponding to the item name specified in the data field of record D14 is stored in DO3 and DO5. For reference, the contents of record DO5 are displayed on CRT display 1 as is.
If it is displayed in 4, it will be in a so-called stuck state, but
FIG. 12 shows an example of the display state.

If you want to check the data that has been stored, please use the condition classification number (for example, "152"), the registered screen classification "2', and the keyword or unique name of records D01.DO2, DO3, DO5 (record DOI is the factory “1” in the category, record DO2 is 1 in the Siminire-952 category
2”, record FDO3 is the work number “YYF
1234”.

Record DO5 is the loft number "5678") by pressing the key on the keyboard 11 and pressing "T" 152-2-2-1
2-YYF1234-5678'', the data input/output device 13B reads from the memory 12 that the condition number ``152'' is registered as a keyword in the label section of record 012.013 in the second layer regarding the heading and format. The record of the block is searched, and the actual data content is searched for the record number and item name shown in record D14.
Search is performed sequentially in the order of O1 and DO5, and the contents of the lowest hierarchy (record D05 in this case) are read and displayed.

As a result, a screen as shown in FIG. 7 is displayed. On this screen, the data entered 411 times is displayed directly above the input canister.

In addition, in the above case, the keyword “ for record DO5
5678″’ (lot number) is not inserted, “152
-2-2-12-YYF1234", the search is performed in the order of records D01, 002, 003, and all of the records DO5 one level below record DO3, in other words, "YYF1234". Data for all of the plurality of lofts having work numbers are displayed.

By the way, when adding to, changing, or deleting already registered data contents, the above-mentioned contents display operation is first performed to display the screen, and then the addition, change, or deletion process is performed.

When adding content, for example, in the case of Figure 7, there is already no blank area, but if there is a blank area where data should be input, enter data into the area where no data has been input. When the entry key on the keyboard 11 is pressed, the data is stored in a predetermined record.

In addition, when changing the data, for example, change the outer diameter to 114.
If you want to change from 3M to 141.3M, as shown in Figure 7, enter "141.3" in the data input canister directly below the display that says 'Gaikei 114.3', and the newly entered data will be displayed. be registered.

Furthermore, if you want to delete data that has already been input, enter "-" (hyphen) in the data entry area where the format mark ("+ × + +-) is displayed and press the entry key to delete it. The subsequent data contents are stored in a predetermined record as described above.
Data is updated and deleted.

Although not shown in Fig. 7, generally when there is data for multiple work numbers and loft numbers, the 7th
The data display section and data input section illustrated in the figure form a pair and are repeatedly expanded and displayed below the illustrated section of the screen. By inputting, updating, deleting, etc. the data in the same way as described above, it is possible to update or delete data regarding plural work number and loft number information on one screen. Data that cannot be displayed all at once can be displayed using a so-called page turning function.

〔effect〕

As explained above, in the past, creating a data input screen for a computer to process data was done on a case-by-case basis.
We decided on the data format, that is, the storage method according to the data type, size, etc., and also decided on the entire screen or each data, as it had individual headings to explain it, indicate its input position, etc. , arrange, and further l
It was replaced with a step-by-step program, and it took a considerable amount of time to input it and make it usable. However, according to the present invention, headings, data formats, etc. are registered in advance, and when necessary, they are called up and combined to be used as screen display data. There is no need to create a program like this in Development 2, and every time a new screen is needed, just registering its heading, format, etc. will produce the same effect as creating a new screen in Development 1. . Also, the time required to create the screen can be extremely short. For example, in conventional so-called business computers, it normally took several days to several days to create one data entry screen, but with the device of the present invention, one screen can be created in about a few minutes. Can be created. Therefore, if the device of the present invention is used, virtually no time is required to create a data input screen compared to the conventional method.

Furthermore, in the device of the present invention, information regarding the storage location of each data is registered in advance and data is displayed, stored, etc. in accordance with this information, so it is a so-called general-purpose data registration device that can handle data in any storage structure. is realized.

According to the inventors of the present invention, using the device of the present invention, it was possible to create more than 20 screens in a few days, which would conventionally take one system developer approximately one year.

Furthermore, since there is no need to develop new programs, the memory storage area that was previously used to store screen display programs can now be used to store data.
When processing a large amount of data, there are usually many input screens, so it is possible to effectively utilize the storage capacity of the memory.

In addition, in the example described in MiJ, the case where it is used as a data registration device in a simulation of a finishing line for seamless steel pipes was explained as an example, but the method using the device of the present invention generally registers and changes any data group.

Data that can be used for addition, deletion, search, etc., such as installation capacity by equipment, time required to change heat treatment temperature by equipment, average moving time between processes, time required to replace equipment by equipment, etc., are related to steel pipe finishing. In addition to processing, it is effective for various data processing.
