A topic net management unitreads one record from a table to generate the topic net (S). Subsequently, from among the field data in the record, the unitgenerates nodes corresponding to the field data for which a corresponding topic class exists (S). Topics corresponding to those nodes are generated. If a node having the same topic is already generated, then the unitdoes not newly generate a node having a duplicate topic (S). The unitmutually links the generated topics in accordance with the definitions between the topic classes (S). Further, using a dialog information template, the unitgenerates dialog information associated with the generated link (S). The unitperforms Steps S-Sprocessing for all records in the table (S). If there is a plurality of tables Steps S-Sprocessing is performed for all tables (S).
