Expire my Application After a Certain Date

To make your application expire after a certain date, set a variable in your program to the expiry date, and every time the program is run, check the current date against that value.  If your program is expired, it will close.

To accomplish this:

--Input your expiration date here, format YYYYMMDD

--(no spaces, dashes, slashes, etc. just use numbers)

--Below is the date Dec 12, 2003

Expiration_Date = "20031212"

 

--Get the system date in ISO format

--Date = YYYY-MM-DD

Date = System.GetDate(DATE_FMT_ISO);

 

--Remove the dashes in the ISO format date

--to reflect the format of our expiry date

--Date == YYYYMMDD

Date = String.Replace(Date, "-", "", false);

 

--test to see if the application is expired

if Date > Expiration_Date then

   --The application has expired

   Dialog.Message ("Application Expired!", "Your copy of this application has expired!   This program will now exit.");

   Application.Exit();

end
