I'm not aware of any database program that comes with Multi-Vue, but
there is a software package out there that is a good database program
under OS-9. I use it all the time, in fact, to keep a high scores
database on my Coco. It's called 'Data Windows', which was written by
Keith Alphonso and originally offered by Alpha Technologies, then
CocoPro!, and then most recently Jim Davis until he dropped off the face
of the earth.

A second database program under OS-9 was 'Sculptor', originally offered
by Frank Hogg Laboratories. I've never used it though, and that one might
be even more difficult to find.
