I can't help much to resolve your issue, but one thing I would try is

take a copy of the axf with a shorter name, like Test.axf, just in case there is an issue with the filename length. I see yours is about 21.3 ... RIO_Field_Database_v8.axf
Although old, take a look thru The ArcPad Team Blog: What is an ArcPad AXF? It is from when the axf format was pretty new
Check that your SQL Express version is compatible with your version (sound like that is where axf is stored (I haven't used axf files in this way...still using ArcPad 7.1 and shapefiles)
read thru some of these past posts
- Unable to check-in/edit AXF
- File/Personal Database with ArcPad and GPS Analyst
- v8.0 help ArcPad User Guide you didn't mention the version you are using but with the v8 in the name, I'm assuming v8.

It would be helpful for others to diagnose if you include you ArcPad version, ArcGIS Desktop version, SQL Express version (if applicable) and maybe even OS version.
