LBF vs CAMOS

Is there an easy way to populate fields in a LBF from content already in the database?
I’m trying to display the data from several different screens in one place at the same time.
The doctor here is very detail oriented and her patient notes are extensive and all inclusive
she can’t understand why she has to go through all the different screens to input data.
She wants to input everything on one form.  
I’ve read all I can find on CAMOS but I still don’t “get it” and the video tutorial was no help (there is no sound).
Is there a way to do this in CAMOS that doesn’t involve a course in php?
I’d like to display/edit things that now appear only on different tabs on the “Patient History/ Lifestyle” page, also need Allergies and so forth,  I’m running the Ubuntu version 4.1.0.  I have some programming experience, but not in PHP.
If there was a “database_field” selection in the “data type” listbox, on the Layouts page, now that would be awesome.

You can write a LBF “plug-in” to do that and many other things.  This is a PHP script whose file name is formname.plugin.php, where “formname” is the name of the LBF form (LBFxxxxx).  See the sites/default/LBF/ directory for various examples.
