30 Day Timer

How do I setup a timer to disable my application say 30 days after it was first run ?

Thanks,
Phil.

You could store the date/time of when your app is first run, as a value in the registry.

Re:

If you don't want to use the registry and the date functions, just set the interval property of your timer to 60000 and in the Timer function use a conter

iCount = iCount + 1

When iCount is equal to 30 * 60 * 24 end your application

Wouldn't using this method mean the application could not be stopped during the course of the 30 days, or it will restart the counter?

You're all right, i just thought the purpose was to be some service in a server... never mind... neither thought it could be for licensing

As i'm dealing with services now,i can only think about them...
