That's my point, if I understand you. This -61 error was thrown by
Valentina as the result of VDatabase.SQLSelect .

The only idea I have is that the application was distributed on a
read-only .dmg file. The user could mount the .dmg file and run the
application from there.

I tried this out on my machine and got some strange behavior that I
cannot reproduce, including cursor changes apparently not being saved to
disk.
