How can I do this? If you dont have the code just tell me the process to make it a trial one then I'll research a little more. Thanks in advance adol Re: how to make a trial software SimonS11-Jun-02 6:10 SimonS 11-Jun-02 6:10  Would your app. connect to the internet?

There is a lot of code out there explaining how to use the registry in your application so I won't go into the details, but again this is just a suggestion. HTH Nick Parker Re: how to make a trial software 13-Jun-02 5:03 13-Jun-02 5:03  Thank you very much for your help Nick!!! Maybe this is the easiest way to do it. Somebody told me I can use the Hard Disk serial number or something like that to control the use of an app, does anybody knows what he was talking about? Best regards, adol Re: how to make a trial software SHaroz13-Jun-02 6:51 SHaroz 13-Jun-02 6:51  I would strongly reccomend encrypting or hiding the date if it is in the registry even if you only do somthing simple like XORing the value. Otherwise, it's realy easy to modify the registry entry to make the program work forever. If you need more explanation, just reply. Re: how to make a trial software Nick Parker13-Jun-02 8:32 Nick Parker 13-Jun-02 8:32  I was only giving an example of a method to limit application life, there are of course other ways (i.e. - including encryption) that are better. Nick Parker Cursor Question Nick Parker7-Jun-02 10:35 Nick Parker 7-Jun-02 10:35  This question is really a question of why not how. I was playing around with an application that would hide and display the cursor with the Win API ShowCursor. I was calling this function in the load event of the application and it was not working. I had a timer on the form and decided to call the ShowCursor function there. Even though this is repetative it works. Does anyone have any ideas what would cause this? Nick Parker Re: Cursor Question Jeremy Falcon11-Jun-02 5:22 Jeremy Falcon 11-Jun-02 5:22  Because its param isn't a boolean to just toggle the cursor on and off. From MSDN about the param... Specifies whether the internal display counter is to be incremented or decremented. If bShow is TRUE, the display count is incremented by one. If bShow is FALSE, the display count is decremented by one. So, ShowCursor False isn't guaranteed to hide the cursor. If another application passed it True a couple of times it won't hide it. If the internal counter is 0 or greater the cursor will remain visible and it hides if it's -1, so check the return value of ShowCursor() and keep on calling it until the counter is -1. That's why the timer method worked. It ensured the internal counter was -1 by calling it over and over again. The thing is though, once it's hidden you can stop calling ShowCursor() to avoid wasting CPU cycles. Jeremy L.

This was just something that I was playing around with so no worries.

It's usually the same way with me. When I get away from the computer is when the solution just pops in my head. Oh well, at least it gave me an excuse to visit the VB forum again. Jeremy L.

Nick Parker Word Macro laphijia7-Jun-02 7:44 laphijia 7-Jun-02 7:44  My Word macro has grown HUGE, so I want to convert it to some C or C++ console application, or whathever, so that It can run i Background. Is possible to make an exe out of a Macro, convert the VBA and make and compile it, etc. This macro simply makes some standard modifies to a TEXT file. The problem is that the Macro language i think VBA, has some advanced funcions to move the cursor in the text. Like Selection. .MoveDown Unit:=wdLine, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend .HomeKey .TypeText Text:=hello .TypeParagraph .TypeBackspace .Delete Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=3 "Nelle cose del mondo non e' il sapere ma il volere che puo'." Re: Word Macro Rama Krishna Vavilala7-Jun-02 7:48 Rama Krishna Vavilala 7-Jun-02 7:48  Ofcourse, you can cut and paste the code in a VB module and compilet it. Of course you may need to add the appropriate reference and also make some small corrections. Re: Word Macro laphijia7-Jun-02 7:57 laphijia 7-Jun-02 7:57  I dont know much about VB. My code is something like: Selection.MoveUp Unit:=wdLine, Count:=1 Selection.HomeKey Unit:=wdLine Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=87 Selection.Delete Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=6 Selection.PasteAndFormat (wdPasteDefault) Selection.TypeBackspace Selection.TypeBackspace Selection.TypeBackspace Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdWord, Count:=1 Selection.TypeBackspace Selection.MoveRight Unit:=wdWord, Count:=8 Selection.Delete Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1 Selection.Delete Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1 Selection.PasteAndFormat (wdPasteDefault) Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1 Selection.Delete Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1 Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=2 Selection.MoveLeft Unit:=wdWord, Count:=2, Extend:=wdExtend Selection.TypeText Text:="=" And I copied it into the sub main of module one in a new Visual Basic Console application. But everithing don't work. Selection wdCharacter,wdExtend, wdLine, is undeclared, etc etc etc HELP PLEASE! "Nelle cose del mondo non e' il sapere ma il volere che puo'."

Permission Denied jlaica6-Jun-02 6:53 jlaica 6-Jun-02 6:53  I am getting a permission denied error when copying text from inside a temp text file to a file already set up in another folder. The problem only occurs when I am reading a group of files and the last file is the one that fails. Re: Permission Denied Nick Parker7-Jun-02 6:09 Nick Parker 7-Jun-02 6:09  Two things: 1. Are you closing the file after you are done with each one? 2. Have you checked the file permissions to see that you have access to it? Nick Parker Re: Permission Denied Gethsus13-Jun-02 3:58 Gethsus 13-Jun-02 3:58  Cuold you be more specific , exactly what is the scenario ?;P how to use the SVGControl.dll in VB6 5-Jun-02 2:32 5-Jun-02 2:32  Dose anyone know how to use the SVGControl.dll in VB6 to view .pdf files. Where can I find any code examples Thanks Re: how to use the SVGControl.dll in VB6 6-Jun-02 2:21 6-Jun-02 2:21  I found the answer to this one on my own thanks. The SVGControl is for viewing SGV files only. When you try to view a .pdf file no error message is given, only nothing shows on the screen.
