Title: Procede et appareil de production automatique de modeles fondes sur un tableur
Inventor: ORCHARD ANDREW CLIVE
Filed: 2002-05-16
Abstract: Selon l'invention, un Designer permet de créer une forme condensée et générique d'un tableur qui est un fichier de définition. Ce fichier peut être conçu sur Microsoft Excel, suivant un ensemble d'instructions, ou au moyen d'un langage symbolique d'un niveau élevé. Si besoin, des fichier HTML peuvent être produits directement à partir d'un fichier de définition d'Excel de façon à permettre à l'utilisateur d'entrer des paramètres au moyen d'un navigateur Web. Un utilisateur définit les divers paramètres qui doivent être utilisés pour leur tableur particulier et le logiciel de l'invention élargit les rangées et colonnes du modèle selon les besoins, tout en mettant au point l'effet sur les formules et les cellules. Un ensemble de tableaux d'informations sont créés derrière les scènes, soit dans la mémoire soit dans un fichier, à partir des informations du fichier de définition. Ces tableaux sont traités de manière structurée de façon à construire les formules de tableur, de façon à référencer d'autres tableaux et de façon à créer tout type d'objets requis pour faire fonctionner le modèle. Des formules sont copiées et/ou recréées selon les circonstances dans lesquelles elles seront utilisées. De plus, les zones d'entrée de données du tableur peuvent être séparées sur une autre feuille de calcul pour en faciliter l'utilisation. Des rapports et des diagrammes peuvent être réglés pour adapter les données. Plusieurs modèles ou définitions peuvent être combinés dans un tableur et d'autres objets, tels que des listes déroulantes et des barres de défilement, peuvent être ajoutés pour améliorer la facilité d'utilisation. Un code VBA (Microsoft Visual Basic for Applications) peut être intégré également pour exécuter des opérations complexes qui ne sont pas disponibles normalement dans un tableur. Des bibliothèques de définitions qui décrivent ou contiennent une copie d'une partie du modèle peuvent être ajoutées en continu, p. ex., un diagramme à barres ayant un schéma de couleur particulier ou une fonction de calcul compliquée. La bibliothèque de définitions peut contenir également un code VBA, qui peut devenir une partie d'un modèle fini et qui peut y ajouter sa fonctionnalité.
