The database documentation was done largely on RootsMagic version 4.0.7.1. As far as we can tell, the database schema has not changed, as of version 4.1.2.1. Changes may be detected by opening a database created by each version with a SQLite manager; then exporting either a query of the full sqlite_master table or the database schema (just the SQL field of that table wrapped in a transaction) and comparing the exports from each version using a text editor that has a compare function (e.g. Notepad++).
The page Database System Catalog is the full sqlite_master table from 4.0.7.1, sorted by the tbl_name field.
For future comparisons, below is the schema from 4.0.8.4, downloadable from Empty4084Schema.sql and that of 4.1.2.1: Empty4121Schema.sql.

Hmm. I’ll try installing it on a similar computer and see what happens.
I purposely chose free tools for this app so they would be easily available to others. It seemed to be in the spirit of the rest of the things here. Visual Studio 2010 Express can be downloaded for free from microsoft. The sqlite library for .NET is similarly free.
I’ll keep you posted on the installation problems. One option you obviously have is to download Visual Studio 2010 Express for C# from Microsoft and rebuild my application from the source on your machine.
