Abstract
A system and method for locating a number in a source document by presenting and manipulating data on private and public companies. A central database of combined public and private information comprising a plurality of financial information is established. A target entity is entered within the central database by a user, and financial information of the target entity from the central database is displayed. Once a number within the display of financial information is clicked on, the system and method determines which document is the source document containing the numbers, searches through the source document for the number, identifies the location of the number in the source document and highlights and displays the number as it appears in the source document to the user.
