Abstract: In a server (10), all column data items are extracted from a master data storage unit (11) and sent to a client (20) in addition to target data corresponding to a data acquisition request that has been sent from the client (20), and in the client (20), the target data and data items received from the server (10) are displayed on a screen in a user-interface selectable mode, thereby making it possible to download from the server (10) to the client (20) the minimum target data required when attempting to perform a desired process on the client (20), and doing away with the waste associated with downloading all the data. In addition, by also downloading and displaying in a selectable manner on a screen data items pertaining to data other than the target data, a user can be shown, in an operable-like manner, data items pertaining to actual data without downloading the actual data.

Abstract: The present invention incorporates both a program and data into an electronic document in a state in which the program can be executed by using the data, thereby generating an electronic document having a program. According to the present invention having the structure described above, in the case in which the program is to be executed to process the data from various viewpoints and the respective processing results are to be presented as electronic documents, it is not necessary to generate an electronic document in a state in which all of the respective processing results are output in advance. Consequently, it is possible to prevent an increase in the number of pages of the electronic document. Moreover, it is not necessary to re-create an electronic document in order to include lacking processing result afterwards.
