The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for automatically generating a knowledge base for use in an expert system. More specifically, the present invention discloses a method and system for automatically generating a knowledge base using a graphical programming environment to create a logical tree from which such a knowledge base may be generated. This enables a user of the present invention to author a knowledge base without knowledge of artificial intelligence specific languages and constructs. This is accomplished by permitting the user to construct a graphical picture that represents the problem solving knowledge about a given subject known as a decision tree, or logical tree. The arrangement of the graphical objects in the logical tree, along with the logical attachments associated with these objects, is used by the system employing the present invention to generate a knowledge base.
