ABSTRACT:
A data display system displays data blocks in a plurality of display fields arranged in a screen, a number of characters displayed in each display field being limited to an allowable number. The data display system includes a display controller for limiting the display in each display field to only the allowable number of characters from a data block of characters, when the number of characters in the data block is greater than the allowable number. The system also includes a selecting unit for selecting a display field from among the plurality of display fields, and a scrolling unit for scrolling the characters displayed by the display controller in the display field selected by the selecting unit.
