It looks like you might have corrupted Leverage preferences. Many software
will "remember" the last state they were used. Maybe Leverage still tries to
access that FileMaker database?

What I would do would be first to make sure I have a Leverage copy on my
hard disk. Then, I would remove it from my Newton. Then, I would run a
preferences cleaner utility (like PrefsCleaner from Standalone, or the
preferences cleaning module in SBM Utilities). The Leverage preferences
should be spotted by the utility as being "orphaned", and you should have
the choice to delete them. Do that. Finally, I would re-install Leverage and
try to launch it.
