Hi Richard,
Thank you very much for your valuable feedback.

Regarding the suggestion given by you in A about the redundancy of a field
in various forms,I have thought to remove the formId attribute from the
field and instead do a mapping to forms afterwards.I'll check whether the
data of the fields is unique or not.

Regarding B I didn't put my complete argument list in the argument
function.Instead I think the function should be of the form

public static InputFormField findByElement(Context context,String element,
String qualifier,String Label,boolean repeatable,String hint ,String
input-type ,..so on)including all other attributes.

Will we still need an InputFormField[] as return type or is my above given
function structure not correct.

Regarding the mapping between collections and forms,earlier I was in
doubt.Now,I am clear that I'll be using separate tables for mapping the form
to pages,collections and item-type.

Thanks a lot again for your suggestions.

Regards
Gaurav
