There are no royalty fees for distributing end-user solutions. However there are limitations on what types of applications you can build and distribute. You cannot for example, build a general purpose reporting or query building type of application. Your application should provide substantial functionality beyond reporting/query data, the report/query facilities should be only part of the application - not the focal point. The database should be a fixed or limited set of tables.
An example would be an accounting system for auto dealerships.
Any database tables that are not accessed by your application. These would the entire universe of database tables to which the user might have access- including but not limited to local databases installed on his machine and remote databases that his machine can connect to.

Distribute the application as either a stand alone .exe or a smaller .exe
plus run-time packages - that is really up to you.

That is fine. You cannot allow the user to connect to other database
information - for example database that are not part of your application.

The users can only connect to the database tables that you provide with your
application (i.e. install to their machine).
