  • Patent number: 5832504
    Abstract: A system of creating enhanced reports from a computer database or programming language. The system will contain the basic data and some contextual information, which is the description of the type of information contained within the lists of the data file. The enhanced report generator will be sets of instructions which are loaded into the computer, each set of which will contain rules for formatting a report, based on the user inputs, the data, and the data's context. In the event that the context is not sufficient, additional contextual information will be loaded at the time that the enhanced report generator is loaded. The enhanced report generator will be loaded into the system in parallel with the standard report generator that is contained within the computer as a software application, and the user can select one, thus making the use of the enhanced reort generator transparent to the computer.
