I have developed an access program that I am getting requests by several different potential clients to purchase the program. Is there a way I can install a key code or another method to prevent resale or free distribution of my access program?
I have in the past hard-coded a User Identity into a 'Licence' table that means when printing key reports it's clear whether the User is in fact the Licensee. Not particularly secure, and certainly doesn't prevent installation, but this seems to have proven pretty effective ...
Combined with issuing the Database in an Access Runtime environment, where access to the objects is restricted, this is a low-end-low-cost method worth trying?
