Delphi 6 was the last time you didn't have to get permission to use something you legitimately own in order to use it. Delphi 7 reportedly allowed you to freely enjoy your purchase, and I remember using my own D7 in that state at one time, but subsequently/more recently it didn't seem possible (either my memory was playing tricks on me, and other people, or they changed something in an update maybe). iirc with Delphi 2010, at least and possibly earlier versions, if you do not activate you get dumped straight back out... no grace period. _______________________________________________ NZ Borland Developers Group - Delphi mailing list Post: delphi@delphi.org.nz Admin: http://delphi.org.nz/mailman/listinfo/delphi Unsubscribe: send an email to delphi-requ...@delphi.org.nz with Subject: unsubscribe
