I generally do not use the rails built-in scaffolding generators. They are from 
the early days of rails and while they may have some usefulness, they do not 
save me time in the long run.

One table that contains over 100 column fields doesn't sound like a good 
database design -- maybe you should step back and think of a way to create a 
more management data model. 

ActiveScaffold lets you write very little code and get a very usable 
out-of-the-box list & CRUD views for admin-facing pages. Like I said, I would 
not use it for front-facing part of the site.

I have found it to be well documented, although trying to do certain more 
complex things can get tricky.
