Thanks, Pete. That gives me a clue. The LC app of primary concern to me has such a long history it started out as a HyperCard stack (and formerly interfaced with a local database, not MySQL). There are instances in which it temporarily saves data to text files to get around HyperCard's 30,000-character field length limit. That said, I have considered that aspect before, and the text files in question are included with the stack in the standalone settings, but maybe I haven't done that properly.
In fact, I now realize that the text files, being of such ancient vintage, don't have .txt extensions. Now wondering if that is the root of the problem, even though this app has worked in the IDE for 7 years.
