Thanks Daniel,
It was a combination of your suggestions.  The CF admin page was a little misleading: 
Login Information: Database.
But I put the database name in there and then it worked AFTER I restarted RDS.  It 
make sense now.

CF-Talk is a great resource.  Since this is my first day using it, I find that I am 
getting hundreds of email.
What is the Digest option offered by CF-Talk?
