Data processing device, data processing method, and storage medium
First Claim
1. A data processing device for executing data processes using a first application and a second application according to input operations, the input operations performed based on data displayed on a display device, the data processing device comprising:
- a data capture controller that selects desired data from data displayed on a first display window of the display device through a process performed in the first application;
a data supply controller that supplies the desired data as supplied data selected by the data capture controller to the second application as an object of a preset data process of the second application, without a user starting up the second application; and
a process command unit that executes the preset data process on the supplied data using the second application,wherein the preset data process includes at least one of printing contents of the supplied data and generating a second display window on the display device to allow the user to edit the supplied data, the second display window being different from the first display window;
wherein the data supply controller includes a third application; and
wherein the third application is a resident program that is constantly running while a device relating to the second application is powered on, the third application indicating a status of data capture or a process run by the second application.

Abstract
A data processing device capable of rapidly processing data through simple operations by the user without requiring a tape editor to be already executing when capturing data from a Web browser and supplying that data to the tape editor and without requiring the user to start up the tape editor. A data capture controller 22 captures prescribed data from the Web browser 31 in a data supply controller 23 based on operations of a keyboard 12 and/or mouse 13. The data supply controller 23 launches the tape editor 32 and supplies the captured data to the same. At this time, the process command unit 24 instructs the tape editor 32 regarding what process to execute, and printing by the tape printing device 2 is performed automatically.

15. A data processing method for executing data processes using a first application and a second application according to input operations, the input operations performed based on data displayed on a display device, the method comprising:
-
selecting desired data from data displayed in a first display window on the display device through a process performed in the first application; supplying the desired data as supplied data to the second application as an object of a preset data process of the second application without a user starting up the second application; and executing the preset data process on the supplied data using the second application, wherein the preset data process includes at least one of printing contents of the supplied data and generating a second display window on the display device to allow the user to edit the supplied data, the second display window being different from the first display window; wherein the supplying the desired data includes using a third application; and wherein the third application is a resident program that is constantly running while a device relating to the second application is powered on, the third application indicating a status of data capture or a process run by the second application, the data processing device being a device on which the data processes are executed. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17)
