Abstract:
A computer system includes a user interface. The user interface includes at least one control for inputting at least one search criterion for searching in a database. The user interface also includes a visual result interface for visually outputting the result, at least one control in the visual result interface for selecting at least one element of a result of the searching, and a visual selection interface for at least visually outputting the selection. The visual result interface and the visual selection interface are positioned beside each other. In addition, the computer system includes a processor device communicatively connected to the user interface and connectable to the database. The processor may execute instructions for searching the database with said at least one search criterion, outputting to the user interface a result of the searching, and outputting to the user interface the selection from the result.
