Title: VB Application Security Question
Post by: pepsisc on November 21, 2008, 12:00:49 AM
OS-Windows XP Professional-SP3, VB6 Enterprise Edition.
 
I am not sure if this is the correct forum to post this. Admin, please move it if I am incorrect.
 
I have written a VB application ( a Sports Betting pool for the casual user)) that I am going to try to sell. I have never done this before. I need suggestions on what to do and how to do it.
 
I would like to have limited usage on the application until the user purchases it. This limited usage could be in the format of Limited capabilities or full usage for a period of 30 days.  
 
Please keep in mind, whatever you suggest, I may be getting back to you with some more questions.
 
Thank You,
Sam

Aloha,
 
To accomplish what you want, you will need to place in your application check to see if the 30 days have expired and application has not been purchased then you have checks in certain routine to immediately exit and do nothing until the app is purchased, thus limiting the operations. You can use an application such as this http://www.mjfreelancing.com/IKG.htm (http://www.mjfreelancing.com/IKG.htm) for registration codes.

The trip was great.  
 
Thanks for the post but from what I read, there's a hefty cost for the application.  
 
I'm not a business. I'm just a retired individual that had an idea. I was looking for some free code and /or ideas. If you or any subscribers to this BBS have any ideas, I would like to hear from them.
 
Thank You,
Sam

Wow, thats the first time I have heard that FREE was a hefty cost. What were you reading????
 
The link was referring to IKG - Inno Key Generator - v1.0.2.1

I wanted to let you know the problem is resolved. I e-mailed Malcolm Smith. They had a problem with their web sit. He supplied me an alternate link.
