Abstract: A computer-implemented method of populating row and column cells of an electronic financial statement document containing with formulas and data, and related apparatus. A formula for a cell in a financial statement is generated from a row definition for the row and a column definition for the column of the cell, where the row definition defines a term of the statement and the column definition specifies a period of time. The resulting statement is displayed to a user, and new formula expressions can be generated to reflect changes in the statement. The statement can have three kinds of columns, namely base columns, subtotal columns, and grand total columns. Data in columns of an input database corresponds to a database period of time, and the base columns in the statement have statement period unit. For each base column of the statement, a correspondence to more than one column of the input database can be computed dynamically.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of creating and editing a document containing one or more terms. A knowledge base containing a set of terms with one or more predefined properties including part-of properties relating terms to each other is provided. The one or more predefined properties associated with a user-selected term are identified. Constraints are imposed on user manipulation of the document with respect to the user-selected term in accordance with the one or more identified predefined properties associated with the user-selected term. In a particular implementation, a method of creating and editing a financial document containing one or more financial terms is described. The tasks of creating and editing documents are simplified by the separation of the presentation of information contained in a document from underlying representation of calculations and interrelationships. A user may readily manipulate the content and appearance of domain-specific (e.g.

Abstract: An improved relay includes a bobbin or spool having dual flanges at each end which include slots for receipt of one leg of an L-shaped armature and core piece. The coil and bobbin assembly including the armature are mounted in a housing on contact pins molded in the base of the housing. An integral armature spring and moving blade contact is also mounted in the housing attached to the armature. One leg of the armature extends along the outside length of the coil and cooperates with a core piece within the spool to complete a magnetic circuit. Upon movement of the armature, the connected moving blade contact provides a wiping action of the movable contact against stationary contact pins thereby effecting efficient making and breaking of a circuit.
