The system of the present invention having a first module (20) for storing information describing a plurality of data objects (150, 160, and 170), attributes of each of the plurality of data objects, and relationships therebetween; a second module (15) for accepting and processing user queries generating first results data, the first results data including the information describing the plurality of data objects stored in the first module; and a third module (85) responsive to the second module (15) for generating second results data using the first results data, the second results data including the information contained in the plurality of data objects. The method of the present invention having the steps of providing data which describes the plurality of data objects, attributes of the plurality of data objects, and relationships therebetween; providing at least one procedure operable to build a query specific to at least one of the plurality of data object; accepting user requests querying the data; updating a first results file in response to the user requests; generating the query specific to at least one of the plurality of data objects with at least one procedure in response to the first results file; executing the query specific to at least one of the plurality of data objects; and generating a second results files in response to the executing step which includes information contained within at least one of the plurality of data objects.
