Custom Evaluation Code for Access 2007 runtime

[boywonder]

I would like for my clients to evaluation my software first, but I don't have it installed. I used SoftSentry when I was using Access 97 and Access 2000. It won't work for Access 2007. Is there some code I can use to create this item.


Also, I tried by taking the Product Code out of the setup configuration file, but it did not work.

Thanks, I will try using the Autoexec process. I will let you know today the outcome...

I decided not to use the Autoexec and just set it up with 3 buttons, a table with 3 fields, a End Date and Serial No text boxes, which calculates the current date and the End Date and 4 functions. Once the datediff count gets to 0, the Trial version expires and Quit the app. If client wants the software, they have to call and buy it. Afterward, we will give them a serial number to enter and then they will be able to use the software without seeing the Evaluation Demo form or getting kicked out of the app. I will put it on my site for anyone to view it later. To secure it I will add everything in the front-end of the software, even the table and set up a runtime on it.
