The EXE has nothing to do with the definition of the views. Those are stored in the DBC, which is presumably in your DATA subfolder. (Actually, there are 3 files for a database--a DBC, DCX, and DCT.) You could copy these over, but unless your database has only views in it, I get a little nervous doing that. You may want to check out Stonefield Database Toolkit at www.stonefield.com. If you change any data structures, this product will save you a lot of headaches when it comes to updating the structures in production.
