Abstract
A data object representing an electronic document having a plurality of data items each having at least one data value associated therewith is loaded from memory. The data object is searched for plurality of data items by keyword search for at least one candidate target data item. A target data item is selected by identifying at least one ancillary data item known to be located within the electronic document proximate to the at least one candidate. A target field within the electronic document is generated to encapsulate the at least one data value associated with the selected target data item. A format of the at least one data value is compared with a predetermined data value format and extracted from the target field in response to the format of the at least one data value matching the predetermined data value format for storage in a table of a database.
