Abstract

PURPOSE:To use a character code as a section code by providing an attribute to an input area to decide whether a certain character code is set or not as a section code and then setting a code in the input data as a section code by said attribute. CONSTITUTION:An attribute sets - (hyphen) in the input areas 9-11 as a section code among those input areas 9-12. Then no section code is set in the area 12. Thus the character data '-' serves as a section code in the areas 9-11 and does not in the are 12 respectively. In other words, a hypen (-) can be used as a section code or the normal input data respectively.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a data input method, particularly in a financial terminal system. The present invention relates to a data input method suitable for inputting data to a transaction screen having an input area for the number 'a'.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional data input methods include 1, for example, JP-A-59-
As described in Japanese Patent No. 208634, a symbol indicating a data delimiter is input between a plurality of pieces of data necessary for processing, and this symbol is identified.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

The technique described in the above-mentioned publication does not take into consideration the setting of data delimiter codes, and there is a problem in that a special symbol must be newly set as a delimiter code.

It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-mentioned problems in conventional data input methods, and to provide a data input method that enables the use of conventionally used character codes as delimiter codes without newly setting special symbols. Our goal is to provide the following.

[Means for solving problems]

The above objects of the present invention include an operation panel, a display device,
In a financial terminal system that has a CPU and memory and inputs and displays data on a transaction screen displayed on the display device to specify financial transaction details, a specific character code is used as a delimiter code in correspondence with the transaction screen. By providing a table indicating whether or not to set the data, when inputting the same number of areas of the display device into the data input area of the transaction screen, by referring to the table, the data can be separated by the delimiter code. data,
This is achieved by a data input method characterized by being configured such that input is made into a plurality of input areas.

[Effect]

In the present invention, an attribute indicating whether or not a certain character code is set as a delimiter code is provided in the input area, and this attribute allows a code in input data to be set as a delimiter code, and the attribute of the input area is set as a delimiter code. , when setting a certain character code as a delimiter code, set a certain character code in the input data as a delimiter code, input the data delimited by the delimiter code sequentially into consecutive input areas, and input the data in the input area. When the attribute is set to not set a delimiter code, a certain character code is not regarded as a delimiter code, but is input into the input area as normal input data.

〔Example〕

EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION Below, one embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail based on the drawings.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an example of a financial terminal system to which the present invention is applied. In the figure, 1 is the CPo, 2 is the memory where the attributes of the input area are stored, 3 is the operation panel, and 4
are display devices, and these constitute a terminal device. Further, 5 is an upper station that transmits the transaction screen and controls the terminal device.

FIG. 3 is a plan view showing the key arrangement on the operation panel 3, in which numeral 6 indicates a numeric keypad and 7 indicates an input key, which will be described later.

FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a transaction screen used for transactions, where 8 is a transaction screen displayed on the display device 4 and used for inputting input data, 9 to 12 are input areas, and 13 is a screen for inputting data using the numeric keypad 6. Indicates the number area to be input.

FIG. 5 is a diagram showing an example of the contents of the memory 2 in which the attributes of the input area are stored, and 14 is a table specifying the attributes of the input area of the transaction screen 8. here,
Corresponding to the input areas 9 to 12, the attributes of input areas 9, 10, and 11 are set to "- (hyphen)" as a delimiter code, and input area 12 is not set with a delimiter code.

The table 14 is set corresponding to the transaction screen 8.

The operation of this embodiment configured as described above will be explained below.

FIG. 1 shows what happens when the input key 7 of the operation panel 3 is pressed.
Flowchart 1-1 FIG. 6 (
Figures a) and (b) are diagrams showing actual examples of data input.

Operation! on the transaction screen 8 displayed on the display device 4! 3, input data into the number area 13 as shown in FIG. 6(a), and press the input key 7.

When the input key 7 is pressed, the following processing is performed according to the flowchart shown in FIG.

That is, first, it is determined whether or not the conditions for pressing the input key 7 are satisfied (process 21), and if the conditions are not satisfied, the input is invalidated (process 26).

If the pressing conditions are satisfied, the input area 9 is used for input.
It is determined whether character data having the attribute is to be set as a one-delimiter code (processing 22).

In the input area 9, the "-" code is set as the delimiter code as described above by the specification of the table 14 that specifies the attributes of the input area, so whether or not there is a delimiter code in the input data is checked. (Process 23).

The data in number area 13 contains the above delimiter code "-"
(see FIG. 6(a)), input data delimited by the delimiter code (here, "111") is input into the input area 9 (process 24).

Next, it is determined whether all input data has been processed (process 25). Here, since the processing of the data in the second riff 13 has not been completed, the processing for the input core 10 continues (processing III!22-25).

For the processing of input area 10.11, please refer to input area 9.
The process is the same as that of .

Even if the processing of input areas 9 to 11 is completed, processing of all input data is not completed, so processing for input area 12 continues. Since no delimiter code is set for the h-character of the input area 12, all data of the gap is input into the input area 12 (process 2223.27).

The results of the above processing are shown in FIG. 6(b).

In the above embodiment, the character data r-J is input as a delimiter code for input areas 9 to 12, and is input to input area 12 as a delimiter code. That is, "-" can be used both as a delimiter code and as normal input data. - There are no special restrictions on the character code used as the delimiter code, and various character codes can be used.6 [Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, the delimiter code Since there is no need to set special symbols as , there is no need to add new hardware, and it is possible to realize a data input method that allows conventional character codes to be used as delimiter codes. It has the effect of being able to
