  • Patent number: 9703831
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for contextually displaying saved search queries is disclosed. The method comprises: displaying a user interface comprising a layout, the layout being associated with one or more tables in a database; receiving from the user interface a request for stored search queries; upon receiving the request, identifying a plurality of stored search queries, each of the plurality of stored search query being associated with one or more tables in the database; and displaying a stored search query from the plurality of stored search queries if the one or more tables associated with the stored search query and the one or more tables associated with the layout include at least one table in common.

  • Patent number: 8990717
    Abstract: Methods, program products, and systems for displaying context-aware charts are described. In context-aware charts, content of a chart can reflect a context of the chart. A charting object can be defined using a data series. The system can dynamically determine what subset of a data source should be used for the data series, depending on where the chart object is placed in a layout, form or other display area. Therefore, a single chart definition can be used to display various charts based on the context of the chart. When a chart object is moved from one data area to a new data area, the system can change the source of the data series such that the data series of the chart corresponds to a different subset of the data source.

  • Patent number: 5552586
    Abstract: A interagency planning document for treatment of an agency client is electronically created and stored in a memory card which is provided to the client. The client retains the memory card for record purposes. Information on the memory card can be shared with other agencies using a palmtop computer and electronic mail or bulletin boards. The planning document can be updated on a continual basis in the memory card eliminating the need for the client to amass large amounts of paperwork. The palmtop computer may contain various databases which may be common to a number of agencies to reduce the vast amount of paperwork and documentation preparation time presently complicating client-agency relationships.
