In an information processor which stores and manages objects with attribute information added to the objects, an object is selected and attribute information of the object is stored in a storage medium. Then, in response to a command issued for copying the selected attribute information, the attribute information stored in the storage medium is added to another object. Thus, the same attribute information can be added to a different object easily. When the same attribute information is added to a plurality of objects, the attribute information selected are added to each of the objects at the same time and stored in a relation to each of the objects in the storage medium. Thus, the load for adding attribute information by a user is reduced largely. Beside a main dictionary which registers attribute information, a sub-dictionary registers data for identifying attribute information for a part of the attribute information registered in the main dictionary. Then, an attribute information can be selected easily in a dictionary even if the number of attribute information therein is large.
