Subject: Creating trial version expiration code
Comments:
I am working on a program for my business and I would like to be able to offer it to others, however I would like to create a trial version where the person can use it for so long then they have to register it. I'm just having trouble finding out how to go about this the right and most efficient way. Any help would be greatly appreciated:) Thanks

There are two options that I can think of:
1. Make a 'cut-down' version of the program that has less features than the full version.
2. Store the date when the program is first opened in the registry or INI file etc, and each time the program is opened again, check to see if today's date is 30 days ahead of the date entered when the program was first opened.
