True DBGrid 5.0, help with applying CD-KEY License
I’ve been supporting a legacy VB6 app for years. Very big app. Works great. Uses True DBGrid 5.0 TDBG5.ocx. I’m trying to update my development PC to Windows 7 machine from Windows XP.
Problem: Original CD’s SETUP.EXE fails with message “this version is not compatible with the version of windows”. Registering the file TDBG5.ocx on the machine was perfectly fine, loads up nicely in the VB6 IDE Components & toolbox, but is stuck in Evaluation" mode for the next 20 days and counting down.
MY QUESTION: How can I manually apply the the original CD KEY (TDBG5-….) onto my new Windows 7 machine?? What’s the method for certifying ownership and use of the control TDGB5.ocx in VB6 this? Is it a registry setting? Maybe a License file I can copy over from my old XP machine?
I’m on day 3 of trying to figure this out…. Pls HELP …
