    Is it possible to link purchase forms to a database?

    Gravity Forms by default saves it's form data in it's own database tables. If you want to also save form data in a 3rd party database you would have to write a customization to do so using the gform_post_submission hook and accessing the Entry object and writing the code to store it in your 3rd party database.

    Have you seen that? I'm looking at using gravity to create forms based on zip codes, so there could end up being thousands of forms...

    Why would you need to create thousands of forms? That definitely wouldn't be efficient. What are you trying to accomplish? Can you outline what you are trying to do in detail?
