Hello,

I love the Form Multicrud module, here it is:
http://drupal.org/project/multicrud

I wanted to store this as a CCK field with my content type and collect data from users with it. It is a perfect solution for prompting and showing Tabular data.

For Computed Code:
(given your form element name is multicrud

$node_field[0]['value'] = serialize($node->multicrud);

In Display field

$rows = unserialize($node_field_item['value']);
$header = array(mycolumn1,mycolumn2,mycolumn3,mycolumn4);
$display = theme_table($header,$rows["items"]);

In your hook_form_alter (so that you display the form on node edit page:

function mymodule_form_alter(&$form, &$form_state, $form_id) {
  if($form_id == "story_node_form")
  	{
	$stored_multicrud = unserialize($form['#node']->field_my_computed_field_name['0']['value']);
	//drupal_set_message(dpr(,true));

	$form['multicrud'] = array(
	'#title' => 'Accounts',
    '#type' => 'multicrud',
	'#weight' => 100,
    '#multicrud_elements' => array(
      // overwrite these!
	   'mycolumn1' => array(
        '#title' => 'Mycolumn1',
        '#type' => 'textfield',
        '#size' => 30,
      ),
      'mycolumn2' => array(
        '#title' => 'Mycolumn2',
        '#type' => 'textfield',
        '#size' => 30,
      ),
      'mycolumn3' => array(
        '#title' => 'Mycolumn3',
        '#type' => 'textfield',
        '#size' => 30,
      ),
      'mycolumn4' => array(
        '#title' => 'Mycolumn4',
        '#type' => 'textfield',
        '#size' => 30,
      ),
    ),
    '#default_value' => $stored_multicrud["items"]
 	);
}
}
