Hi,

I want to allocate License keys to users, I want to achieve the concept where I store a license key in a text file on a webserver.

Every time the user opens the database, a HTTP response checks the license key to see if it valid.

Has anyone created anything like this...or if anyone can guide me to a pre-written code to achieve this?

Hi, you may watch my video here : Secure Access Database with Online License Keys
This is my simple idea to test the code for online validation, hope it meet your need.

Hi I had done something for checking a text file on a web server which essentially looks at a version of a database. It could be altered to look at a licence key and an email address or name. I attached the module in text format. You can simply call it up via a function "fn_CheckLatestWebVersion". Hope this helps and no guarantees

In case it helps, see also my example app Web Version Checker. This works in a similar way to the description in the last post.

Hi isladogs,
I love you screen stuff. I have downloaded a few of your demo's and they are very useful. Keep up the great work as it will be extremely useful to me as I move forward with some of my projects. I do like you system tray example and attention seeking database. I am currently seeing what you have listed.

Cheers
Tonez
