Well, if its data related, the CDE is the obvious place.

It may be possible but its probably not the way to do it. For example, you would use form based methods for UI related tasks, like disabling certain controls when certain conditions are true or false, that sort of thing. You certainly wouldn't do that in the CDE. The CDE is about data, the form is about presentation. Thats were the separation should occur.
