ABSTRACT:
The data processing apparatus of the invention is intended to operate and process promptly by displaying information in plural screens at a time, and touching the position or title area of the screen to be copied, thereby copying the copy character string easily and simply, and saving key input manipulations in the operating machine. When the touch position is within the screen of action board, the cursor is moved to the touch position (S24) to judge if there is copy character string or not (S25), and if copy character string is not found, the flow chart is terminated. If copy character string is found, the copy character string is put into the cursor position of the action board (S26). This judgment if there is copy character string or not (S25) includes the judgement if there is copy character string for making character strings other than the copy character string invalid for copying and making only the copy character string valid or not.
