Abstract

A file management system, a file management method, and a storage medium by which a higher productivity is achieved by efficient document indexing. In copying index data, a copy is created from text data of an application such as a text editor or a spread sheet or from index data displayed on a document list of a document management system. A range for pasting index data is selected by a pointing device or keyboard operation. The selected range includes a record as a search result, a record in which a new document is recorded, and a pre-index record. If a user gives an instruction on pasting index data, the obtained index data is checked to be recordable data for a field of the selected cell. If it is recordable data, index data record processing is performed.
