Abstract
A method for designating a subset of a basic set of data records stored in a memory unit and for visualizing at least a part of the designated subset on a display unit. To designate the subset on the display unit, at least two graphically delimited display regions are formed. Objects representing data records from the basic set are displayed in a first display region and the subset of objects designated or to be designated is assigned to a second display region. A subset is designated by highlighting at least one object in the first display region, moving the highlighted at least one object into the second display region and cancelling the highlighting. This allows a highly intuitive designation of a subset of datasets from a basic set. The designation method can be used particularly for generating playback lists of MP3 files.
