If you say that APP only READs,
And IF you will prepare DB on your computer, make diagnose,
Then deploy to users,

I do not see problems why you cannot mark it as READ ONLY.
Then cannot be any index problems future - they already exists.

YES, especially if think about WIN Vista and win7.
They strictly on default prohobit WRITE into db files which are inside of
    /Program Files

This is why we also have change our WIN installers, to install Examples
folder into MyDocuments/Paradigma/VADK_4
