Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 18
Claim 1
Independent Claim 160 words
A method of developing a computer program, comprising the steps of: selecting an application script to be modified, wherein the application script resides on a first server: displaying a code editor window on a monitor attached to a client, wherein the code editor is used to modify the application script and wherein the client is connected to the first server; displaying a query list dialog box on the monitor attached to the client, wherein the query list dialog box lists one or more pre-programmed database queries and displays query commands to modify the queries or add additional queries; and selecting one or more of the pre-programmed database queries from the query list dialog box and inserting the code for the pre-programmed database queries into the code editor window, so that the application script modified in the code editor window includes embedded database queries therein that communicate with a database on a second server that is connected to the first server.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 160 words
A method of developing a computer program, comprising the steps of: selecting an application script to be modified, wherein the application script resides on a first server: displaying a code editor window on a monitor attached to a client, wherein the code editor is used to modify the application script and wherein the client is connected to the first server; displaying a query list dialog box on the monitor attached to the client, wherein the query list dialog box lists one or more pre-programmed database queries and displays query commands to modify the queries or add additional queries; and selecting one or more of the pre-programmed database queries from the query list dialog box and inserting the code for the pre-programmed database queries into the code editor window, so that the application script modified in the code editor window includes embedded database queries therein that communicate with a database on a second server that is connected to the first server.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 14 words
The method of claim 1 above, wherein the pre-programmed database queries comprise SQL queries.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 25 words
The method of claim 1 above, further comprising the step of opening the selected pre-programmed database query from the query list dialog box for modification.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 16 words
The method of claim 1 above, further comprising the step of creating a new database query.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 27 words
The method of claim 1 above, further comprising the step of deleting one or more of the pre-programmed database queries listed in the query list dialog box.
Claim 7
Independent Claim 182 words
An apparatus for developing a computer program, comprising: a client having a monitor connected thereto; means, performed by the client, for selecting an application script to be modified, wherein the application script resides on a first server connected to the client; means, performed by the client, for displaying a code editor window on a monitor attached to the client, wherein the code editor is used to modify the application script; means, performed by the client, for displaying a query list dialog box on the monitor attached to the client, wherein the query list dialog box lists one or more pre-programmed database queries and displays query commands to modify the queries or add additional queries; and means, performed by the client, for selecting one or more of the pre-programmed database queries from the query list dialog box and inserting the code for the pre-programmed database queries into the code editor window, so that the application script modified in the code editor window includes embedded database queries therein that communicate with a database on a second server that is connected to the first server.
Claim 8
Independent Claim 182 words
An apparatus for developing a computer program, comprising: a client having a monitor connected thereto; means, performed by the client, for selecting an application script to be modified, wherein the application script resides on a first server connected to the client; means, performed by the client, for displaying a code editor window on a monitor attached to the client, wherein the code editor is used to modify the application script; means, performed by the client, for displaying a query list dialog box on the monitor attached to the client, wherein the query list dialog box lists one or more pre-programmed database queries and displays query commands to modify the queries or add additional queries; and means, performed by the client, for selecting one or more of the pre-programmed database queries from the query list dialog box and inserting the code for the pre-programmed database queries into the code editor window, so that the application script modified in the code editor window includes embedded database queries therein that communicate with a database on a second server that is connected to the first server.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 14 words
The apparatus of claim 6 above, wherein the pre-programmed database queries comprise SQL queries.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim 25 words
The apparatus of claim 6 above, further comprising the step of opening the selected pre-programmed database query from the query list dialog box for modification.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim 16 words
The apparatus of claim 6 above, further comprising the step of creating a new database query.
Claim 12
Dependent Claim 27 words
The apparatus of claim 6 above, further comprising the step of deleting one or more of the pre-programmed database queries listed in the query list dialog box.
Claim 13
Dependent Claim 186 words
An article of manufacture comprising a program storage medium readable by a computer and embodying one or more instructions executable by the computer to perform method steps for developing a computer program, the method comprising the steps of: selecting an application script to be modified, wherein the application script resides on a first server: displaying a code editor window on a monitor attached to a client, wherein the code editor is used to modify the application script and wherein the client is connected to the first server; displaying a query list dialog box on the monitor attached to the client, wherein the query list dialog box lists one or more pre-programmed database queries and displays query commands to modify the queries or add additional queries; and selecting one or more of the pre-programmed database queries from the query list dialog box and inserting code for the pre-programmed database queries into the code editor window, so that the application script modified in the code editor window includes embedded database queries therein that communicate with a database on a second server that is connected to the first server.
Claim 14
Dependent Claim 186 words
An article of manufacture comprising a program storage medium readable by a computer and embodying one or more instructions executable by the computer to perform method steps for developing a computer program, the method comprising the steps of: selecting an application script to be modified, wherein the application script resides on a first server: displaying a code editor window on a monitor attached to a client, wherein the code editor is used to modify the application script and wherein the client is connected to the first server; displaying a query list dialog box on the monitor attached to the client, wherein the query list dialog box lists one or more pre-programmed database queries and displays query commands to modify the queries or add additional queries; and selecting one or more of the pre-programmed database queries from the query list dialog box and inserting code for the pre-programmed database queries into the code editor window, so that the application script modified in the code editor window includes embedded database queries therein that communicate with a database on a second server that is connected to the first server.
Claim 15
