Re: Adding an Application Form/Process

OR ... I could look to one of the survey or database access tools.  The less custom the better, because I have to assume there will be no I.S. skills on staff when I leave. CiviCRM is very good at what it does, but it doesn't need to be everything for everyone, and I'm OK with that.  So if...
