Margaret,

All pathing information is handled by the framework. There are two ways get the path to your dbc, one is through the registry, and the other is through the metadbc table. Which configuration to use depends on whether you checked off "use metadata database manager" in your application object. If you are using more than one database, then you will need to use the metadata database manager.

You can set the path through the preferences form. I suggest you read the documentation on these topics.
