The schedule transmitter 5 extracts the time included in the schedule transmission request, retrieves, selects a schedule whose staring time is close to the extracted time and transmits it to the terminal 3. The terminal 3 extracts an address from the schedule and transmits a display information transmission request to a display information transmitter 4 based on the address. The display information transmitter 4 transmits display information data based on the display information transmission request. The terminal 3 extracts display information from the display information data and displays it on the screen 2.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI
