All Primavera apps including P3 use a database, unless your definition of a database is that it has to be SQL. (P3 can be server-based as a multi-user app, not only standalone. And standalone and server-based P3 installations both use Btrieve databases.)
Contractor is a single-user, single-project-at-a-time standalone app. It cannot by design connect directly to the P6 multi-user multi-project database. But it has the most seamless possible interface with that database. ("Send Project", etc.) It installs with the included MS SQL Server Express, the default P6 database.
Various other P6 Windows client functionality has also been disabled, but the fundamentals are there. Resulting in the simplest possible lower-level vehicle for complete compatibility. And thats its main purpose, not as a P6 replacement.
