With mouse operation displayed on the retrieval map part 34, a circular part 46 is moved and when any document 30 is instructed by a pointer 44 as a target, peripheral documents 30 are put into the circular part 46, recognized as a document higher than the set degree of relation and displayed as a list on a retrieved document list display part 38. Thus, the circular part 46 can be effectively utilized as a radar for retrieval.</p> |
