Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (a) Industrial field of application The present invention is mainly used in word processors and personal computers, and includes address data of a plurality of recipient addresses, names, etc., and sender's address, names, etc. The present invention relates to an address data processing device that stores sender data and prints an address such as a sent item and a sender address name for each destination.

(B) Conventional Technology Conventionally, the address data processing device as described above has a configuration as shown in FIG.

In this, the address data such as a plurality of destination addresses and names are stored in the address data memory 11, and the sender data such as the sender's address and name is stored in the sender data memory.
The address and the name of the other party are read out from the address data memory 11 via the address book controller 15 by the main controller 14 by specifying them from the keyboard 13 and the sender's address from the sender data memory 12. , Read out the name, and print the name of the sender and the name of the sender's address for each recipient
It is designed to print at 16.

(C) Problem to be Solved by the Invention However, in the conventional address data processing device of this type, since only one type of address of the sender is stored, when changing the address of the sender, the address of the sender is changed. There is the inconvenience of having to enter again.

The present invention has been made in consideration of such circumstances, and a plurality of types of sender's address, such as home and work, are stored, and the sender's address is classified according to the classification items provided in the address data memory. The present invention provides an automatic sender address selection device that selects and prints an address according to the recipient.

(D) Means for Solving the Problems FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the configuration of the present invention.

As shown in this figure, the present invention provides an instruction means 101 for instructing the output of address data, and an address data storage means for storing a plurality of address data such as the address of the other party, name, etc. together with classification item data of the address data. 102, sender name data, and sender data storage means 103 for storing at least two sender address data corresponding to the sender name data.
And read out address data from the address data storage means 102 based on an instruction from the instruction means 101,
A control unit 104 for identifying a classification item attached to the address data and reading sender address data and sender name data corresponding to the classification item from the sender data storage unit 103;
Output means for outputting the address data, sender address data, and sender name data read by the control means 104
It is an automatic sender address selection device comprising 105 and.

(E) Action According to the present invention, the sender data storage means 103 includes:
The sender name data and at least two sender address data corresponding to the sender name data are stored.
Further, the address data storage means 102 stores a plurality of pieces of address data such as an address of a destination, a name, etc. together with classification item data of the address data.

When the address data and the sender data are output, the control means 104 reads the address data from the address data storage means 102, and further, the classification item attached to the address data is identified to be the classification item. Corresponding sender address data and sender name data are read from the sender data storage means 103. The read address data, sender address data, and sender name data are output means 10
Output by 5.

Therefore, it is possible to automatically select and output one sender address office data and sender name data according to the classification item data of the address data such as the address and name of the other party. That is, if the sender's address is stored in the sender data storage means 103 in two types, such as home and work, the work address is for business use, and the home address is for private use. In addition, the sender address can be automatically selected and output. As a result, the operational burden on the operator can be reduced as compared with the conventional case.

(F) Embodiment Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail based on an embodiment shown in the drawings. The present invention is not limited to this.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of one embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, 1 is a keyboard, 2 is a printer,
3 is an address data memory that stores address data such as a plurality of recipient addresses and names, 4 is a first sender data memory that stores the sender's home address and name, and 5 is a sender's work address and name The second sender data memory, 6 is the address data memory 3, the first sender data memory 4 and the second
An address book control unit 7 reads and writes data from the sender memory 5, and a main control unit 7 controls the address book control unit 6 and the printer 2.

The address data memory 3, the first sender data memory 4 and the second sender data memory 5 are composed of RAM,
The address book controller 6 and the main controller 7 are composed of CPUs.

The address data memory 3 stores the contents as shown in FIG. 3, and stores the address and name of the other party and particularly the classification item. This category item is divided into items such as “sales” and “private”.

When instructed by the keyboard 1, the main controller 7 first accesses the address data memory 3 via the address book controller 6. If the classification item of the address data memory 3 is "sales", the sender's work address and name are read from the second sender data memory 5, and the address and name of the other party are read from the address data memory 3. The read operation is performed so that the printer 2 prints these in the address writing format of postcards. When the address data memory 3 is accessed, the classification item of the address data memory 3 is "private".
If it is, the home address and name of the sender are read from the first sender data memory 4, the address and name of the recipient are read from the address data memory 3, and these are read by the printer 2 in the postcard address writing format. Operates to print.

4 and 5 are explanatory views showing examples of printing a postcard, in which FIG. 4 is printed with the sender's address as the home address, and FIG. 5 with the sender's address as the work address. Showing things.

The operation in such a configuration will be described based on the flowchart shown in FIG.

When there is an instruction from the keyboard 1, the main controller 7
First, the classification items are read from the address data memory 3 via the address book control unit 6 (step 201). Next, whether the classification item of the address data memory 3 is "private" that "prints the home address in the sender's address field" or "prints the work address in the sender's address field". If it is "private", the sender's home address and name are read from the first sender data memory 4 (step 203), and "sales" is performed.
If it is, the sender's work address and name are read from the second sender data memory 5 (step 204).

Then, the address and name of the other party are read from the address data memory 3, and these are printed by the printer 2 in the address writing format of the postcard (step 206).

In this way, according to the classification item provided in the address data memory 3, one of the two types of addresses, the sender's home and work, which are stored in advance, is selected and printed. It becomes possible to automatically change and print the sender's address according to "and private requirements".

(G) Effect of the Invention According to the present invention, if the sender data storage means stores two types of sender addresses, such as home and work, for business use, the work address, i. In such a case, the sender's address such as the home address can be automatically selected and output. As a result, the operational burden on the operator can be reduced as compared with the conventional case.
