Licensing UK-Info 2003

If you have purchased the professional version of UK-Info you will need to unlock the product either online using our express online activation technology or over the phone. We recommend that activation is carried out online as it is much simpler and less time consuming.

During setup you will have been prompted to enter your membership ID. You should have recieved this with your disk. If this was entered the first time that you run the UK-Info program you will be presented with this window:



If you do not have an internet connection, click "Activate Offline". Click here for further instructions on offline activation.

Clicking "Activate" will take you to to the following screen.



It is recommended at this point that you check that the membership ID that you entered at setup is correct and that it is the same as the number stated in this box. Keeping the tickboxes checked for the features that you wish to activate, click "Authorize" to connect to our web server and carry out online activation. This will not work if you are not connected to the internet at this time. Once authoriztion is complete, green ticks will appear next to each activated feature name:



If all features have been ticked, click "Close" and restart the program. It will now be fully activated.

OFFLINE ACTIVATION

In the event that you do not have an internet connection you will need to activate the product offline over the phone. This will involve the exchange of several long character strings between yourself and the telephone operator and thus we recommend that this is avoided if possible. If it is not possible follow these instructions:

Go to the help menu of the program. You should have the same menu items as in the diagram to the left. The items that you are concerned with are "Authorise ER" and "Authorise OSIS".

Selecting one of these will present you with another window containing a "Site Code" and a space in which to enter a "Site Key".



You will need to contact our customer services department on 020 7909 2200 and quote the site code to them. They in turn will supply you with a site key which, upon entering, will activate the feature. You will need to do this once for each feature you wish to activate. In order to finalize the activation the program will need to be restarted.
