Abstract

See full text

A report generation control system for operating a text processor to produce output reports containing inter-report summary data from data processing-type files. The system is compatible with text pagination functions and is useable by a text entry/revision operator with no programming skills. The system permits the operator to describe the desired report by keying an example page of the report in the exact desired format and then editing the example page by replacing the required variable file data examples with descriptive instructions and by inserting summary instructions. The system scans the edited example page for instructions, breaks it down into logical components and compiles the components into program routines which will produce the desired output report.
