ABSTRACT:
The invention provides a file processing apparatus, with which files can be selected easily when subjecting files to a predetermined process. A window W that is displayed during file processing is partitioned into three regions, namely a file display window W1, a selected file display window W2, and an execution icon display window W3. While ascertaining the contents of the files in a predetermined folder and comparing among the files with the icons displayed as thumbnails in the file display window W1, the user can select files to be processed by double-clicking. Once a file has been selected, it is displayed as an icon in the window W2, so that file selection can be performed easily and accurately while scrolling down the window, for example. After the file selection is terminated, a process can be executed, for example by double-clicking a process icon displayed in the window W3.
