Abstract

An information processing apparatus which provides improved user interfacing. Upon the inputting of model data, data-input windows and item information input into the windows are displayed, and parameters input in the displayed data-input windows are converted into text data and stored into a memory. The text data includes a plurality of instructions having parameter's input in the data-input windows. As the stored text data is read and execution is designated, the instructions described in the text data are sequentially executed. Further, it is possible to change the instruction included in the text data. Further, the instructions described by the text data may be changed by reading the text data and displaying the read text data on a display screen and changing the parameters of the instruction. Otherwise, an instruction may be added to the text data by reading the text data and displaying the read text data on the display screen and adding additional instructions to the text data.
