Here, for example, as shown in Figs. 2A to 2D, Tutorial 1 inputs object " 3 " in cell A1 and cell object " 4 " (= &Quot; SUM (A1, B1) ") for obtaining the sum value of the objects of the A1 cell and the B1 cell in the cell C2, the event expiration condition 1 indicates that the cell A1 The editing command to input a selection command 'will be input. In the case of the event expiration condition 2,' an editing command to input the number '3' into the cell 'A1' And the event expiration condition 4 is 'an editing command to input the number' 4 'is inputted to the cell B1', the event expiration condition 5 is 'an editing command to select the cell C2 is inputted' , Event expiration condition 6 is 'an edit command to select the total icon is input' And the event expiration condition 7 is' an editing command to select the cell A1 'is input. In the event expiration condition 8, an editing command to input' character 'and' The editing command to select cell B1 is to be input, and the event expiration condition 10 may be 'an editing command to input a line break.' Accordingly, the message message 1 is 'Select cell A1' , The guidance message 2 is the message 'Please input the number' 3 'in cell A1', the message 3 is' Please select cell B1 '' and the message message 4 is' 4 ' The message "Please select the cell C2", the message 6 is the message "Please select the total icon" and the message 7 is the message "Please select the cell A1" , The guidance message 9 is the message 'Please select cell B1', and the guidance message 10 is the message 'Please change line'. Correspondingly, events 1 and 2 are events that flash in a preset flashing color (e.g., yellow) in the background color (i.e. white) of the area of cell A1, and events 3 and 4 are events that flash in the background color of the area of cell B1 Event 5 is an event blinking in a preset flashing color in the background color of the area of the cell C2, event 6 is an event blinking in a preset flashing color in the background color of the area of the total icon, Event 7 is an event blinking in the background color of the area of the cell A 1 with a predetermined blinking color, event 8 is an event blinking in a preset blinking color in the background color of the area of the cell C 2, Event 10 is a flashing event in the background color of the region, and event 10 is a blinking event in the background color of the area of the cell C2 in a preset flashing color Can edit command reception section 120 receives the edit command corresponding to the input signal entered by the user via the input device. Here, the input device is an input device such as a keyboard, a mouse, a touch screen, or an electronic pen connected to the electronic document editing device 100, and can generate an edit command based on an input signal input by the user.
