I have to develop a framework in such way that it has to support work  
flows and persistance storage in ruby on rails .for example if we take  
office automation system ,if the user interacts with the system,if  
that event results in workflow, the workflow system has to kick in  
and if user wants to store the data ,the persistance thing will come  
to picture .generally the object we want to circulate between  
workflows is a spread sheet  
can anyone supply pointers for this how to approach

in order to fit your style i’ll also try to write the answer without  
bothering much about correct punktuation gramar and ortografi and write  
it  
all more or less in one paragraf which doesnt make it much easier to  
read but it illustrates an important point namely how to cleverly ask  
questions on mailing lists so to come to the point what you could  
actually  
do is to store your spread sheet somewhere on a persystent storage (say  
/home/mysuperrubyapp/myspreadsheet999222333.xlr and then to pass on only  
the reference such as the filename to it in the session and thus every  
step in the whole work flow can then access that file and update it
