Hiya guys

I have a table which flags the date for use as a demo db. Its currently set to 14 days trial then after that the db is useless.

Now, some ppl may have stored alot of records in that 14 days so rather than having to send out a full copy (unrestricted) on purchase, is there a way, I can have a button to delete the FlaggedDate table?

Something like -

Button - Unlock

popup message (Please enter your unlock code)

Enter code, click unlock and the table is deleted, therefore no restrictions?

this is an interesting issue. i've dealt with it recently. and a better thing to do would be to limit the number of times people can open the db. if you do that, then they won't be able to get around your security by changing the system date.

this is what microsoft has done now, instead of recording the date of download.

but yes, you can do this. there is a delete object method of the docmd in vb you can probably use.
