Method for obtaining common mode information and common field attribute information for a plurality of card images
First Claim
1. A method for obtaining common mode information and common field attribute information for a plurality of card images belonging to a "box" to generate field definition tables, each card image having at least one field with each field including corresponding mode information and field attribute information, in a data processing system having a mode image buffer and a display unit for displaying at least part of said mode image buffer, said method comprising the steps of:
- writing the mode information and field attribute information of said at least one field of said card image into said mode image buffer;
analyzing said corresponding mode information and said field attribute information of said at least one field of said card image written into said mode image buffer;
to discriminating said corresponding field attribute information from said corresponding mode information; and
automatically generating field definition tables at least as to the position of said at least one field, the attribute of said at least one field, and the length of said at least one field specified by start and end field position indicators based upon said corresponding field attribute information of said at least one field.

Abstract
In a method for obtaining common mode information and common field attribute information for a plurality of card images belonging to a "box" in a data processing system, fixed information and field indicating information are written into a mode image buffer and the content of the mode image buffer is displayed on a display unit. The field indicating information written into the mode image buffer is analyzed to make field definition information tables, and a field name, for each field, is detected to make a field name table. By sorting and merging the contents of the field definition information tables and the field name table, a blank form is made.

7. A method for obtaining common mode information and common field attribute information for a plurality of card images belonging to a "box" to generate field definition tables, each card image having at least one field with each field including corresponding mode information and field attribute information, in a data processing system having a mode image buffer and a display unit for displaying at least part of said mode image buffer, said method comprising the steps of:
-
writing the mode information and field attribute information of said at least one field of said card image into said mode image buffer; analyzing said corresponding mode information and said field attribute information of said at least one field of said card image written into said mode image buffer;
discriminating said corresponding field attribute information from said corresponding mode information;
automatically generating field definition tables at least as to the position of said at least one field, the attribute of said at least one field, and the length of said at least one field by start and end field position indicators based upon said corresponding field attribute information of said at least one field; andperforming a "hiragana"-to-"kanji" transformation upon said corresponding mode information of said at least one field.

A method for obtaining common mode information and common field attribute information for a plurality of card images belonging to a "box" to generate field definition tables, each card image having at least one field with each field including corresponding mode information and field attribute information, in a data processing system having a mode image buffer and a display unit for displaying at least one part of said mode image buffer, said method comprising the steps of:
-
writing the mode information and field attribute information of said at least one field of said card image into said mode image buffer; analyzing said corresponding mode information and said field attribute information of said at least one field of said card image written into said mode image buffer;
to discriminating said corresponding field attribute information from said corresponding mode information;
automatically generating field definition tables at least as to the position of said at least one field, the attribute of said at least one field, and the length of said at least one field by start and end field position indicators based upon corresponding field attribute information of said at least one field;determining whether a field name is located within said corresponding mode information on a left side of each field when no field name is located on the upper side of each field; determining whether a field name associated with a colon on a right side thereof is located at the left side of each field when no field name is located at the left side of each field; and providing the coordinates of each field with a field name when no field name is associated with a colon located on the left side of the field.
