Information processing method and apparatus, and storage medium thereof

摘要

The present invention was accomplished noting that a range of information desired to select differed according to a mode selected. For example, even in the case where a plurality of information pieces were grouped, an erasing operation was often effected only in part thereof. In that case, complicated processes were required, steps to delete the desired partial data after once ungrouping the information group for every erasure operation and to regroup the information pieces thereafter. The present invention enhances operability by an automatic changeover to designate either a single piece of information or the whole group as a range of information to be selected as a processed object according to a mode selected.
