MS-ACCESS, MySQL, Oracle or something else? If it's an access file, you can include the .mdb file into the setup file itself. For Oracle, you can't 'copy' a database file. You'll need to dump the contents of the tables you need into file and import them into the Oracle Database on the User's machine.

As long as the address of the database server doesn't move or change, your application should work.
