〔Example〕

FIG. 1 shows an external configuration diagram of an embodiment of an electronic notebook according to the present invention. In the figure, 1 is the main body of the electronic notebook, 2
3 is a current time display section, 3 is a schedule cent time display section, 4 is a group of switching buttons, 5 is a schedule display section, 6 is a group of function keys, 7 is a group of input character keys, 8 is a group of cursor movement keys, The function key group 6 includes a set key 9 and a mode switching key 10.
, symbol keys 11, 12, 13, item deletion key 14,
A cancel key 15 and a bumper space key 16 are provided. Symbol keys 11, 12, and 13 are used to enter the contents of the schedule, and the symbols ``Kai'' (meeting), ``ko'' (course), which represents a course, and ``uchi'', which represents a meeting, are written on the tops of each key. There is. Schedule set time display section 3
, the month and day corresponding to the month, week, and day displayed on the schedule display section 5 are displayed. Each button in the switching button group 4 corresponds to a schedule display section 5, and by pressing this button, the corresponding week or day is selected and displayed on the schedule display section 5.

FIG. 2 shows a flowchart for realizing hierarchization of the electronic notebook, and FIGS. 3 to 8 show display screen diagrams of the schedule display section 5. The configuration of the electronic notebook according to the present invention will be explained below with reference to FIGS. 1 to 8.

First, when the power is turned on, a monthly calendar is displayed on the schedule display section 5 in FIG. 1 at step (2) in FIG. By the way, the hierarchical screen display is based on the screen display management table (the information necessary to access the address where the schedule for one week and one day of the month is stored as data, and the information necessary to display the schedule for two weeks and two days of the month). This is possible by having a table consisting of information about the format and information about what is currently being displayed (monthly, weekly, or daily).

After the display, the program waits for key input in step (2), and when the key input is input in step (2), the schedule display section 5 changes. At this time, in step (2), if monthly or weekly schedules are displayed as keys, input character key group 7 in FIG. Errors in the key operation procedure are detected, such as when keys of the cursor movement key group 8 are manually operated but are not recognized as manual keys. If the operation is recognized as correct in step (2), proceed to step (2). In step (2), by referring to the screen display management table, it is known what the current display screen is (monthly, weekly, or daily), and if it is days, go to step (2), and if other than days, go to step (2).

In step (2), the current display is received from step (2), and it is determined which data in the screen display management table is to be changed based on a key input signal, and the process proceeds to step (2). Another step ■.

In step (2), the data is updated according to the input key, and the process goes to step (2). In step ■, information about where to rewrite the screen display management table is received from step ■ or step ■, and the table is updated.
Return to

In FIG. 3, June is displayed on the date and time display section 3, and a calendar for June is displayed on the schedule display section 5.
