I can't think of anything off hand that would cause this. All the versions of MacLoggerDX you were using were using the same db version...

For example, I rearranged some of the columns on the display of my laptop version of the log and then when I opened the file later using my iMac I noticed that the new column arrangement appeared on the iMac as well. So, is the column display information also stored in the database?
No it is stored in your preferences.
