  • Publication number: 20100091022
    Abstract: Creation of presentation material and the like is facilitated by easy selection and input of character information corresponding to a graph. In a core add-in section for creating a graph and the like from numeric data, when a graph displayed in a graph display area is clicked, a graph information processing section acquires time information which is a parameter on the X-axis (horizontal axis) at the clicked position. A character information acquiring section searches an article database server storing article information (including title information and text information such as on a newspaper article) and acquires the article information including date/time information which is information on one of the attributes matches the acquired time information.

  • Publication number: 20100053167
    Abstract: Even if a display means or a memory capacity of a terminal device is small in size, a plurality of economic statistical data are displayed in such a form that the data can be compared with each other. Out of economic statistical data a client terminal device (1a) acquires from a server (2a) on the basis of one operation command, a character information forming unit (17) makes a display unit (13) display character information first. All the acquired economic statistical data are recorded in a data recording unit (141). When a mouse cursor is set on a graph display icon associated with a specific character, image data that display a graph corresponding to the character information are acquired from the data recording unit (141) and the image data are subjected to a popping-up display on the display unit (13).

  • Publication number: 20090048959
    Abstract: Information on the handling records and occupancy status such as of a company carrying financial products in the financial capital market is converted into image data the contents of which can be visually sensibly grasped. A display region forming section (14) of a share map display apparatus (1) has a first display region indicating the total amount of the handling records of specific financial product. Generally the whole part of the first display region is divided into generally rectangular second display regions whose areas are determined according to the information on the handling records in a specific field out of the specific financial product. Generally the whole part of each second display region is divided into generally rectangular third display regions whose areas are determined according to the handling records of the financial institution in the specific field, thus forming display regions of a hierarchical structure.
