Abstract: The invention provides information concerning records that cannot be retrieved on a search path among databases when the retrieval of search keys for other related databases and records is carried out in a plurality of databases in a chain-reactive manner. In the course of retrieving search keys and records in a chain-reactive manner up to a terminal database, information for identifying a group of search keys and a group of records retrieved through a series of retrieval processing is outputted in one line or one column of a table. When the record retrieved from a certain database in the chain-reactive search procedure does not contain a search key to be entered into a subsequent database, information for identifying a record that does not contain the search key and information for identifying a database having the record is outputted.

Abstract: A plurality of database search path candidates are automatically determined and provided. Databases containing information with similar characteristics are divided into groups (hereafter referred to as a “category group”), and a correlation diagram is created based on links between those category groups. In the diagram, high priority is given to links between category groups constituting a path that has to be passed through due to relevance between the characteristic of databases, and normal priority is given to other links. When a path search is carried out in this diagram, an important path is selected regardless of attributes such as distance between databases or time by carrying out a first path search along the high priority path between category groups.

Abstract: A search path can be easily designated between a plurality of databases for retrieving search keys and records from related databases in a chain-reactive manner. Databases that are potential search targets are displayed on a two-dimensional screen in the form of figures. Individual figures are designated using a pointing device and then key database A and terminal database D are designated out of databases A to F corresponding to the designated figures. Search keys and records are retrieved in a chain-reactive manner by following designated one or more of possible paths 302a and 302b that pass through the databases that exist between key database A and terminal database D designated on the screen.
