Abstract: According to one embodiment, a reading report creating apparatus includes a processing circuitry. The processing circuitry instructs saving of entry values of a plurality of entry items contained in a reading report creating screen. When saving is instructed, the processing circuitry extracts from the plurality of entry items a first entry item which requires entry of a value and in which a value has not been entered, and/or a second entry item in which an entry value is inconsistent with a specific entry item. The processing circuitry generates a displaying area in which the first entry item and/or the second entry item are/is arranged. The processing circuitry displays the displaying area on a display.

Abstract: A document information classification method and apparatus for classifying a document group and arranging a classified result hierarchically on the basis of key words given to the document group and words appearing in documents without dependence on a prescribed classification system. The document group of a document data base and a key word group given to each document of a key word data base are managed by a data management unit. A document classification unit classifies documents into folders on the basis of individual key words and stores them. The folders having similar document groups are integrated. Whether the integration is effective or not is judged upon integration. Whether the inside of the integrated folder and the inside of unintegrated folders can be classified in detail or not is judged and a hierarchical classification system is prepared. A classified result is produced in CRT by a classified result output unit to provide environment in which a user can read out the classified result.
