As shown in FIG. 2, the first address of the address number management area 220 for the user interface indicates the physical address # 1 (of the phone number data storage area 210) and the second address. Indicates that physical address # 2, third address indicates physical address # 3, fourth address indicates physical address # 4, and fifth address indicates physical address # 5. Let's explain.

When the user operates the operation unit 101 and selects a phone number data registration menu, the controller 110 controls the first to fifth addresses of the address number management area 220 for the user interface of the storage unit 105. In turn, the phone number data indicated by each address is displayed.

The user operates the operation unit 101 to input data specifying a specific address number (second address in the embodiment of FIG. 3). As described above, the designated address number (second address) indicates physical address # 2.

In this case, the controller 110 increments the address number from the designated address number (second address) by "1". The incrementing address only increments the number of numbers, and the physical address originally indicated is the same. That is, the original 2 address is (2 + 1) but still points to physical address # 2, the original 3 address is (3 + 1) but still points to physical address # 3, and the original 4 address is (4 +1) is the address, but still points to physical address # 4. Originally, address 5 is the (5 + 1) address, but still points to physical address # 5.

In addition, the controller 110 allows a specific address number designated by the user, that is, the designated address number (second address), to indicate a physical address (physical address # 6 of FIG. 3) where actual phone number related data is to be stored.

Accordingly, the telephone number-related data can be stored at any desired address (for a user interface for managing the telephone number-related data) without deleting the telephone number-related data.

According to an auxiliary aspect of the present invention, it is preferable that the telephone number related data stored in the physical address # 6 is newly input according to a user operation.

That is, a user frequently registers new phone number-related data in a mobile communication terminal, which is frequently generated. According to the aforementioned auxiliary aspect, each time a user renews the phone number-related data at any desired address. This is because you can register.

The address number of the third address and the fourth address indicating the physical address # 4 are decremented by "1". As a result, the third address becomes the (3-1) address and the fourth address becomes the (4-1) address. The address is decremented only in the number of numbers, and the physical address originally indicated is the same. That is, the original third address becomes the (3-1) address but still indicates the physical address # 3, and the original fourth address becomes the (4-1) address but still indicates the physical address # 4.

In addition, the controller 110 may include a second address number for the purpose of the first address number (indicative of the corresponding physical address of the user telephone number data to be moved) (the second address in the embodiment of FIG. 5). In the embodiment of FIG. 5, the address is changed to the fourth address).

The embodiment of FIG. 5 is applied to a case where the telephone number-related data of the address number before the target address number, that is, the order of priority, is moved to the address number.
