ABSTRACT:
Disclosure is made of a menu-driven computer interface system employing a graphical user interface for the entry of text data in a data store. The system receives user inputs for controlling the graphical user interface, which interface provides a document form display including at least one data entry field for text entry. The system generates a moveable cursor or pointer in the display which is positionable in response to a first control input from a user. The system responds to a second control input from a user by replicating one or more data fields.
