In the case of the present invention, a card having a predetermined card format is stored in a data processing device as a card image, and the card image is displayed on a display for processing. Each card image consists of format data as shown in Figures 1 and 2 and field contents (card data) given corresponding to fields (items) such as "Customer Name" on the card image. Separately memorize and
If necessary, both data are merged and displayed on the display. And it is assumed that it represents one real card.

The fields on the card image include character fields and numeric fields. In the form data, "..." is given to indicate the character insertion point for character fields, and "〓〓〓, 〓〓〓 to indicate the numerical insertion point is given for numeric fields. It is being

Generally, there are many cards that share format data as shown in Figures 1 and 2, so card images corresponding to these cards are grouped together into a "box" as shown in Figure 3. Introducing concepts. Symbol 1 is a card image, 2
represents box. In order to provide boxes as one processing unit, the following information (or storage unit) is prepared corresponding to each box. That is, (i) Box profile (memory section)... box number, box name, etc.

(ii) Format data (storage unit)...Data corresponding to the card format (blank card) as shown in Figures 1 and 3.

(iii) Field definition information (storage unit)...Field start coordinates and attributes for each field (for numeric fields, presence or absence of commas, number of digits after the decimal point, etc.).

(iv) Field name (memory part)...The name of each field.

(v) Card data (storage unit): Card data corresponding to individual card images belonging to the same box is stored in association with each page.

FIG. 4 shows an example of a mode of processing according to the present invention, and it can be considered that the display as shown in the figure is displayed on the display and the processing begins.

The screen on the display shows the cards in the first frame.
An image display, a card image display in the second frame, and an input image display for inputting processing procedures etc. can be performed together. In the case shown in Figure 4, the 7th item belonging to the box “Membership Fee Bill”
All or part 3 of the card image addressed to Mr. Osaka Furou on page 3 is placed in the first frame, and all of the card image of Mr. Fujitsu Taro on page 7 belonging to the box ``Membership Fee Deposit Slip'' is placed in the first frame. Alternatively, part 4 is displayed together in the second frame (hereinafter sometimes referred to as split display). Input image 5 is displayed, and the contents of the second line of the "Billed Amount" field, which is the field on the card image in the second frame, are changed to the "Current amount" field, which is the field on the card image in the first frame. Instructs to transfer the amount to "Invoiced Amount".

In the case of the data processing device that is the subject of the present invention, the operator is able to create and register contents such as the illustrated input image 5 in sequence, and by pressing the execution key, the input image 5 can be handled. The actual processing is executed at high speed based on the contents registered as the processing procedure.

FIG. 5 shows the process of creating a processing procedure corresponding to the input image 5 shown in FIG. In addition, Figures A to E in the illustrations show how to delete the information when inputting the processing procedure on one card image by erroneously inputting the ``-'' (quantity x ``unit price =''). .

FIG. 5A shows the display at the time when a predetermined card image is displayed in the first frame and when the user presses the "=" key, it is realized that "unit price=" is inputted incorrectly. Note that 7 in the figure represents an actual cursor according to the present invention, 8 represents a procedure cursor according to the present invention, and 9 represents an overlapping display mark of the actual cursor and the procedure cursor.

In the state shown in FIG. 5A, first press the frame switching key to delete the frame. As a result, as shown in FIG. 5B, the actual cursor 7 is superimposed on the procedure cursor 8, and the mark 9 appears. FIG. 5C shows a state in which the mark 9 has been deleted and moved to the desired position. Also, Figure 5D is Figure 5C
This shows the state in which the delete key is pressed under the state of . After deleting in this manner, when the frame switching key is pressed, the actual cursor 7 and the procedure cursor 8 are separated as shown in FIG. 5E. As a result, the operator creates a processing procedure by moving the actual cursor 7 to any desired field.

Note that the actual cursor 7 is managed separately for one corresponding to the first frame and one corresponding to the second frame.
Indicates the fields to be processed in each card image. Further, the procedure cursor 8 indicates the input position on the input image.

Although not shown in the diagram, if you are trying to process the card image displayed in the first frame (specified using the frame switching key), only the card image in the first frame will be processed. The execution cursor is displayed and the actual cursor on the card image in the second frame disappears. Furthermore, each card image in the first frame and the second frame can be scrolled independently. Further, the size of each of the first frame and the second frame can be increased or decreased as necessary, and at this time, the sizes of the other frames are decreased or increased accordingly.

FIG. 6 shows an aspect of the search process, in which one card image (one of a plurality of images is sufficient) is displayed as a result of the illustrated search process corresponding to the processing procedure. represents the state. For the illustrated search, (i) the address is "Setagaya-ku"
, (ii) the gender is "female", (iii) the age is "between 20 and 30", and (iv) the furigana of the name starts with "to". Instructing.

Needless to say, in addition to the above-mentioned search, sorting processing, card verification processing, etc. can also be performed. FIG. 7 shows a mode in which the same process is performed on multiple fields on multiple cards.
In the case shown in the figure, it is instructed to perform the process Quantity x Unit Price = Amount for item names 1 to 10 for pages 1 to 30 of the card, and calculate the total for each item.

That is, the actual cursor is positioned on the frame, and the field on the card image displayed in the frame is processed. 29 is a box call control unit, and the box call control unit shown in FIG.
Controls such as loading necessary boxes from the floppy disk 12 onto the main memory are performed via the open control units 22 and 23. 30 is a page switching processing unit that changes the page number in response to the page switching keys (next page, previous page, page designation, end of sentence) etc. from the keyboard 10, and changes the page number to the currently active frame. Corresponding box e.g. 2
For the 0-1 side, record buffer 35-1
Transfer the card data of the necessary pages to the top.
That is, the old contents of the record buffer 35-1 are stored on the floppy disk 12 via the record store control unit 31-1, and
Card data corresponding to the new page is loaded from the floppy disk 12 onto the main memory via the record load control unit 31-2. At this time, the page number holding section 36
-1 is updated, the page number display control unit 32 notifies the display frame open control unit 42 (FIG. 9A), which will be described later, to display the page number.

Box 20- loaded on main memory
There are card image buffers 34-1, . . . , 34-n corresponding to the boxes 1, . field definition information, format data, etc. and the record buffer 3 above.
5-i is supplied to the form/data merging device unit 37 and merged, and the result is transferred and held. The contents of the card image buffer 34-i are supplied to the card display control unit 38. The card display control unit 38 displays the above cards for each frame.
Correlate the contents of image buffer 34-i,
It is supplied to the screen buffer 41.

Each box 20- loaded on main memory
1, . . . , 20-n, the display frame start lines 45-i, 45-i,
The end line 46-i of the display frame, the starting Y coordinate 47-i of the card displayed on the screen, the left edge X coordinate 48-i of the card displayed on the screen, and the actual cursor 49-i on the card image. is retained.

The display frame start line 45-i holds which line (absolute coordinates) on the display screen is the start line of the frame assigned to the self box. The display frame end line 46-i holds which line (absolute coordinates) on the display screen is the last line of the frame allocated to the self box. The starting Y coordinate 47-i of the card displayed on the screen is the starting Y coordinate value of the card image currently displayed on the display screen (the coordinate value on the card image -
relative coordinate values) and are used for vertical scroll processing. The left end X coordinate 48-i of the card displayed on the screen holds the left end X coordinate value (relative coordinate value) of the card image currently displayed on the display screen, and is used for horizontal scroll processing. Ru. The actual cursor position 49-i is
It holds the position where the real cursor should emit light when the box is activated, that is, the relative coordinate value of the real cursor on the card image.

The card control unit 38 receives each piece of information on the screen control information holding unit 44, and is used when creating a screen display image on the screen buffer 41 based on the contents of the card image buffer 34-i. Use for positioning.

A vertical scroll control unit 39 and a horizontal scroll control unit 40 are provided which operate in response to depression of the actual cursor key. Needless to say, scrolling means that when all the contents on the Card Image Buffer 34-i cannot be displayed on the display screen at once, only a portion of the contents are displayed for the time being, and undisplayed contents can be added as needed. are displayed in sequence. There are vertical scroll control and horizontal scroll control,
When the scrolling is performed, the respective control units 39 and 40 update the coordinates 47-i and 48-i on the screen control information holding unit 44.

Vertical scroll control is performed in the following manner. That is, when an operator attempts to move the actual cursor beyond the upper or lower boundary of the active frame, the actual cursor display control unit 26 , grasps the information on the screen control information holding unit 44, detects the occurrence of the situation, activates the vertical scroll control unit 39, and changes the Y coordinate value 47-1 on the screen control information holding unit 44. Update content. This causes the card image to scroll up or down within the active frame on the display screen.

Similarly, in the left-right scroll control, when the cursor is to be moved beyond the left or right boundary of the frame, the actual cursor display control unit 26 controls the screen control information holding unit 44 via the left-right scroll control unit 40. The contents of the upper X coordinate value 48-1 are updated.

These vertical scrolls and horizontal scrolls are performed within the range of the active frame, that is, within the frame, based on the information on the screen control information holding unit 44.

When creating a display screen image to be displayed on the display screen on the screen buffer 41, a frame header as shown in FIG. 4 (the black line shown in FIG. 4 and the characters within the black line) is added. Make it.
This is to allow the operator to easily see which box and page the card image currently displayed in each frame belongs to.

In order to display such a frame header, a display frame open control unit 42 shown in FIG. 9A is used. That is, when setting a frame to initially display a screen on the display 11, the display frame open control unit 42 uses the box numbers and box names of the boxes 20-1, . . ., loaded on the main memory. and displays the box name within the black line on the header of the box. Fourth
Regarding the frame at the top of the diagram, the box name ``Membership Fee Bill'' is inserted within the black line.

The display frame open control unit 42
A page number is received from the page number display control unit 42 shown in FIG. B, and the page number is included within the black line and displayed as "P.7" in the case shown in FIG. Then, when a page is switched, the display of the page number is sequentially updated. Needless to say, when the boxes loaded on the main memory are replaced, the box names in the frame header are changed accordingly.

In the configuration shown in FIG. 9, control can be performed to change the size of the frame on the display screen. That is, for example, in the case shown in Figure 4, the size of the first frame displaying the "membership fee invoice" is enlarged and the size of the second frame displaying the "membership fee deposit slip" is adjusted accordingly. It can be made smaller and vice versa. Such frame enlargement/reduction control is performed by the display frame change control unit 43 shown in FIG. 9A.

That is, when the operator moves the actual cursor and the actual cursor is currently emitting light on, for example, the upper frame (first frame) shown in FIG. 4, that is, when the first frame is in the active state, the corresponding frame When attempting to move the real cursor further down than the lower border of the card image displayed in the
The size of the frame is enlarged, and the size of the second frame is reduced by that amount. In other words, from above the first frame,
The upper part of the card image, which until then could not be displayed due to the size limitation of the first frame, appears and becomes displayed. Conversely, when the operator moves the actual cursor and the actual cursor is now emitting light on, for example, the lower frame (second frame) shown in FIG. 4, that is, when the first frame is in the active state,
When attempting to move the actual cursor further above the upper border of the card image displayed in the frame, the size of the second frame will be enlarged and the size of the first frame will be reduced by that amount. Ru. In other words,
The lower part of the card image, which could not be displayed due to the size limitation of the second frame, appears from below the second frame and is displayed.

When the movement control of the real cursor as described above occurs, that is, the control to move the cursor beyond the boundaries of the card image, this condition is detected by the real cursor display control unit 26. Then, the display frame change control unit 43 is notified. The display frame change control unit 43 instructs the screen buffer 41 to enlarge or reduce the frame, and also changes the display frame start line 45-i on the screen control information holding unit 44.
and the end line 46-i of the display frame are updated. At this time, as a matter of course, the information 47-1 and 48-1 are also changed.

Furthermore, in response to the expansion/reduction of the frame, the following situation may occur regarding the frame in the inactive state. In other words, the actual cursor does not actually emit light for the frame on the inactive side, but screen control information is retained for the box corresponding to the frame on the inactive side so that the actual cursor can emit light when switching to the active side. The actual cursor position 49-i is held within the unit 44. In this state,
If there is no frame reduction, the actual cursor should be able to emit correctly the next time it is switched to the active state, but because the frame has been reduced, the position where the actual cursor should be emitted has been reduced. You may end up going outside the box. In this case, when the reduced frame side is switched to the active state, the actual cursor display control unit 26 determines that, based on the contents of the screen control information holding unit 44, a situation occurs in which it is necessary to perform vertical scrolling control. , and scrolls up and down.

50-1,... shown in the lower right of FIG. 9B
. . , 50-n are index holding units, and one index holding unit is prepared for each box loaded on the main memory. And the index holding unit 50
-i has an index buffer 51-i, index field information 52-i, read register 53-i, and pre-update record buffer 54-i. The index, of course, corresponds to a quick index of the individual fields or their contents on the card image. Then, the record number (corresponding to the page number) of the card image having the read key is stored in the index buffer 51- in combination with the read key for each field or its contents ("A" in the figure). held on i. Index field information 5
0-i can be considered to be management information for the index buffer 51-i. Index buffer 51
The contents of -i are stored in the index save control unit 55 and the index load control unit 5.
6. Read/written by the index update unit 57 and updated as necessary.

Reference numeral 58 in the figure indicates a pre-update record buffer copy processing unit, which, when updating the contents of the record buffer 35-i on the main memory, copies the previous contents of the record buffer 35-i and copies the pre-update record. - Works to store it in the buffer 54-i. The index update unit 57
The difference between the contents of the updated record buffer 35-i and the contents of the pre-update record buffer 54-i is extracted, and the difference is stored in the index buffer 51-i.
Update the contents of.

Reference numeral 59 is a high-speed search item setting unit, which sets search items when a search can be performed using the contents of the index buffer 51-i during search processing. Then, the index holding unit 50-i is indexed based on the item. That is, it is used for search processing. Also the 9th
The page number record number conversion unit 60 at the lower left of Figure B is used during search processing, and in order to extract pages that match the search conditions at random during search processing, it converts page numbers into record numbers. Each card image is managed, and the page number record number conversion unit 60 performs this conversion process. This result is the 9th
It is held as a record number 61-i in association with the record buffer 35-i shown in FIG.

The collation subbox selection unit 62 at the upper right in FIG. This is used to select a box during image matching processing (processing using search). The kana-kanji conversion dictionary 63 shown in FIG. 9B is used to perform kana-kanji conversion when writing field names and card data on card images, for example. Furthermore, the blank card creation unit 64 may be considered to be for displaying only the card format.

FIG. 10 shows an embodiment in which search processing and collation processing, which is an application of the search processing, are executed based on the contents of the index holding unit 50-i and the record buffer 35-i in the main memory shown in FIG. It shows the main part.

First, the concept of card verification will be explained with reference to FIG. A personnel card image as shown in the upper display frame of FIG. 11 may be displayed, and it may be desired to successively check the ``department'' to which each employee belongs and the business content of the department. In this case, on the lower display frame in Figure 11,
Control is performed to display one card image in the job card box in which the same "department name" as the "department" content on the card image displayed in the upper display frame is written. That is, a corresponding one is extracted by search from a plurality of card images belonging to a box called job title card and displayed. Each time the card image displayed in the upper display frame is updated, the card image on the job title card box corresponding to the content of "affiliation" on the card image is extracted and displayed. go.

First, the search process will be explained with reference to FIG. The search conditions are provided by the operator as shown in input image 5 described in connection with FIG. This process is designated by a search condition designation unit 65 shown in FIG. The search state is canceled by the search state cancellation designation unit 66.

The search link holding unit 67 corresponds to the display frame in which the box to be loaded into the main memory is displayed.
-1 to 67-n are available. and,
The specified search conditions are stored in the search condition storage unit 68.
-i. Then, the corresponding search state flip-flop 69-i is set and the search control unit 71 is activated.

As a result, the search control unit 71 fetches the search conditions from the search condition storage section 68-i, and
When the contents of the index buffer 51-i mentioned above can be used for the search, the contents of the index buffer 51-i are used via the high-speed search item setting unit 59 shown in FIG. 9B. Have sex. Furthermore, if the contents of the index buffer cannot be used, there is no other choice but to rely on sequential retrieval, and the retrieval is performed sequentially using the contents of record buffer 35-i shown in FIG. 9A. If a card image matching one search condition exists, the record number of the card image is sequentially set on the search link 70-i. The record number on the search link 70-i is used as a population to select card images that match the next search condition,
Record numbers of card images that also match the second search condition are left on the search link 70-i. The record numbers that ultimately remain are output as the search results.

The case of card verification outlined with reference to FIG. 11 will be explained. The matching condition in this case is specified by the matching condition specifying unit 72. The card verification state is canceled by the verification state cancellation unit 73. When a matching condition is given, for example, in the case shown in FIG. 11, "personnel code/department=job title card/department name", the matching condition is stored in the matching condition storage unit 74. In this state, the personnel card box shown in FIG. 11 is set as the main box, the position card box is set as the sub-box, and card verification is started.

When the matching search condition generation unit 76 is instructed via the box comparison unit 75 that one card image belonging to the main box (personnel card) has been displayed, the above-mentioned "affiliation" is stored from the matching condition storage unit 74. unit 76 is notified. Based on this, unit 76
Receives the content of "Affiliation" on the currently displayed card image from the record buffer on the box side, for example "Development Department Development Section", and uses the content as a search condition for verification in the search condition storage section of the sub box. 68-i. Then, the search state flip-flop 69-i is set and the search control unit 71 is activated. The search control unit 71 performs the above-mentioned search process while simultaneously searching for card images belonging to sub-boxes, and extracts card images whose section name is the above-mentioned "Development Department Development Section" from the job card box. , display the card image. Needless to say, this search process is performed each time the card image on the main box side is changed.

Note that, in the case of the card verification process, since the number of searches is large, it is desirable to limit the search to the range for which the above-mentioned index is available if possible.

The search processing and card matching processing described above are not limited to searching within the same box, and for that purpose, a plurality of search link holding units 67-i are provided.

Although the term box has been used above, the term should be interpreted broadly, and it goes without saying that it means a collection of information that falls under the box, including, for example, files.

(E) Effects of the invention As explained above, according to the present invention, the card
In image processing, it becomes possible to perform processing while extracting necessary card images by searching.
