I am trying to load a DBIsam table into a grid. Should be easy, but I cannot get it to work, I dragged the dataset associated with the table to the main form and inked it up with a grid. The client app compiles but when the client app is run and I try loading the data with Database,LoadRows(DataSet1) I get the error message "Dataset load response error. (The database Default does not exist."

I am trying to use the default database that is auto created. Any help would be appreciated. I am sure I am missing something easy.

So I added the following

Database.DatabaseName:='MY_DATABASE';  <= I added this line
Database,LoadRows(DataSet1) ;

And now it works as expected. Based on what I read in the documentation, I thought DatabaseName would have been assigned automatically.  (I dragged the dataset, but not the database, from the server manager to the client main form. Perhaps if I dragged MY_DATABASE from the server manager to the client app "tab gutter" it would have worked?)

Yes, if you drag the entire database into the work area from the server manager, the IDE will set up everything for the database.
