Abstract
Data collection and management is an essential activity for most scientific investigations. To be able to “quickly” develop and support the data collection needs for the various types of investigations undertaken in a comprehensive cancer center is a challenge. CAF-É is an object-oriented development environment that combines common objects with study-specific data entry form(s) libraries with common and study-specific metadata has been used successfully to address this task. It is based on a Windows forms front-end with a SQL Server database as the back-end.
