Abstract:
1. A data-processing system having functions of performing a step-by-step sequence of data-processing tasks and displaying a result of each task, on a basis of measurement data obtained with a liquid chromatograph, a gas chromatograph, or a mass spectrometer, comprising: an error detector for detecting an error if a certain data-processing task was incorrectly performed on the measurement data from the liquid chromatograph, the gas chromatograph, or the mass spectrometer; an error investigator for identifying a cause of the error detected by the error detector; and an error message displayer for displaying an error message showing the cause of the error identified by the error investigator, as the result of each of the aforementioned task and subsequent tasks in the sequence of data-processing tasks, in response to a request for displaying the result of any of the aforementioned task and the subsequent tasks, if the error detector detected an error.
