Abstract: A system and method for managing information over a network (104, FIG. 1) enables a user, at a client computer (102) to access and modify information accessible to a server (106). A user can create (FIG. 10) a new manageable entity (e.g., a project), which results in storage of entity-specific and non-specific information (FIG. 12) in a database (108, FIG. 1). In addition, a user can create or edit (FIG. 17) various forms, which can be associated with one or more manageable entities. Information describing the form (FIG. 21) is then maintained by the system. The form can then be used to enter or modify data associated with the manageable entity.
