To reduce damage to a column caused during column switching when performing successive analyses while switching columns, provided is liquid chromatograph control system 70 for analyzing a sample according to a schedule table where analysis conditions and execution order of a plurality of analyses are described. Control system 70 includes: schedule reader 66 for reading out two consecutively executed analysis conditions; column comparator 67 for comparing columns used in the two analysis conditions; insertion method file creator for creating an insertion method file so that the flow rate of a mobile phase sent to the column used in later one of the two analyses is increased in stages toward a flow rate determined for the later analysis, where the columns are different between the two analysis conditions; and a schedule table creator 63 for inserting the insertion method file into immediately before the later analysis in the schedule table.
