Abstract:
A method for constructing a shippable software module on a personal information server suitable for execution on a remote computer for inserting data strings into an electronic form, the method comprising:receiving a request from a remote computer for a shippable software module suitable for execution on the remote computer for inserting data strings into the electronic form; retrieving a form mapping containing a plurality of associations between fields in the electronic form and pre-named fields on the personal information server, the mapping being associated with the electronic form; retrieving a raw data file containing data strings from a plurality of raw data files, each data string corresponding to a pre-named field and the raw data file being associated with a particular user; dynamically constructing a shippable software module suitable for execution on the remote computer for inserting data strings into an electronic form utilizing the form mapping and the raw data file and comparing an intended-practice condition associated with each field in the electronic form as determined by a form-originating server, with a use-preference condition associated with each pre-named field as determined by the particular user; and transmitting the shippable software module to the remote computer.
