That (probably) won't work, at least on Windows. Most programs, from the lowliest crippled shareware to M$ Office, create a obscure registry key upon install that is not removed when you uninstall the program. Thus, the program will always know how long it has been since you *first* installed it. There's probably something in a hidden/obscurely-named .plist file on Mac that will do the same thing. The recommendation of VMware was a good one for Windows users. VMware allows you to create an endless supply of "throwaway" virtual machines on which you can continue to reinstall the OS from scratch every 30 days. Of course, all you'll need to install on the virtual machine will be the OS and Finale, so it won't take near as long as a traditional reformat/reinstall. -- Brad Beyenhof [EMAIL PROTECTED] my blog: http://augmentedfourth.blogspot.com Life would be so much easier if only (3/2)^12=(2/1)^7. _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
