>I created a *very* simple exe called testapp using the Mere Mortals framework. When I run the application in debug mode everything works fine. When I run the exe I get an error "Alias testapp is not found." The name of the database is testapp, but there are no tables called testapp. I remember seeing this error years ago, but I can't remember how to fix it. Any help would be appreciated.

Jim,

What would happen if you try to use a database different from the name of the application? Change the name of the app from TestApp to myTestApp first just to see where exactly is the problem.
