For the next person who runs into this, it happened because when I copied the new version of the compiled application, I (brilliantly) didn't copy the dll's and the like, too, so when the database functions came along, we had a problem. It also created a copy of another file in the directory, and gave it the same name - "copy of RevError Report". The dialog popped up because I can't type and the -ui didn't make it. It was close, but it didn't make it.
