Okay ...
That doesn't appear to be working, but I think it's my fault for not
explaining myself correctly.
All of my dev files are located here (network drive):
V:\wwwroot\FlexProjects\Faces\src
Faces.db
Faces.mxml
etc.
But the app will probably get installed here:
C:\Program Files\Faces
Is there some way for Flex to know that while I'm developing, when I say
Faces.db I mean
V:\wwwroot\FlexProjects\Faces\src\Faces.db
but when the app is installed and running on a user's machine I mean:
C:\Program Files\Faces\Faces.db
Lastly, is that even where the db would get installed on the user's machine,
or would it get installed somewhere else?
Thanks for being patient with me. I know what I want to do, I just don't
know how to get it done.

You don't define it anywhere. You just use it in a string. The original
code on this thread, would be re-written like this:
var db:SQLConnection = new SQLConnection();
var file:File = new File("app:/Ds-fs1/Shared/Faces/faces.db");
db.open(file);
AIR sees it when accessing a file and just knows where to look.
Kind of like the web browser knows the difference between "http://",
"ftp://:, and "file://".
Air knows the difference between "C:\", "app:/", and "app-storage:/".
Does that answer the question?
