daysbetween function

Expand Post »

HI

I want to calculate the amount of days left between now and let's say 5 days from now using daysbetween. everytime i try to run my app, it says that daysbetween is a an undeclared identifier. i want to use this function to limit the length of time a client can use my application. basically a trial version the can try out for a couple of days before it locks up and require serial key to reactivate. usually made a monthly trial but want to go to weekly one. can anybody give me some tips on this.
Thanx again you guys are real life savers.

Regards

Re: daysbetween function

Just doing a "round(YourDate-now);" (both TDateTime or TDate) would do the work, but, you are supposing the user won't play with the system clock to fool your system!
