An apparatus for generating a control program for sequence control. The sequence-control programming apparatus includes a storage section configured to store plural types of given ladders respectively describing plural types of commands separately from each other by ladder logic, the commands related to a specific operation to be executed by the operating system; a selection input section configured to receive a selection input for selecting a plurality of desired given ladders from the plural types of given ladders; and a program generating section configured to extract the plurality of desired given ladders from the storage section in accordance with the selection input, and combine the extracted desired given ladders to convert the extracted desired given ladders into a single system-compatible ladder configured to make the operating system execute the specific operation, so as to generate the control program.
