Evaluating DDT - error when opening

I recently downloaded the trial version in order to test the Database Deployment Toolkit.  I activated the DDT license only and attempted to run the DDT.  When the DDT dialog opens, I received the error message below.  What should I do?

SqlException
  Invalid object name 'dbo.DBEProfile'.

Source     : .Net SqlClient Data Provider

Hi Johnny,

When you install SF, make sure you also let the installer to updated the SF database.

Edhy is right on the money.  The StrataFrame database can either not be found in the connection that you have going into the DDT or you did not allow the database structures to be deployed.  In the latter case, be sure to re-run the intall and allow the structures to be updated.  Otherwise, update the Database Connection through the DDT or through Visual Studio -> StrataFrame -> Database Connection.  Make sure that you have your SQL credentials correct and the StrataFrame database selected.
