i have got an idea...try this...during the form load of ur main form...store the date of first run in a text file through file commands at an unknown location...e.g. windows/system32... and then every time the user runs...the formload checks for thr file and reads the date and comapares with the currnt date...if it doesnt find the file then its the first run and u need to create the file...and u can set the date to any number of days after the first run date.... subhrajyoti

Hi Rikky, Thanx for ur response. I will surely try this. But there is a small problem. If suppose the file is renamed or deleted, then the demo version will be of no use. :) Thanx & Regards. Success is not a Destination, ... But a Journey !!
