About Carlson
The purpose of this dialog is to inform user about currently
installed version of the software, enabled features and to assist
with registration and installation issues.
The list box in the dialog shows the copyright notice, when and
what version was installed, patches applies and features currently
licensed based on the serial numbers enabled.
Registration - clicking button leads to a dialog containing
the list of the serial numbers currently in use in software and
their status:
Click Add to put in additional serial numbers,
or highlight number and click Remove to deactivate it. At
least one serial number needs to be entered in this dialog for the
program to function. Each purchased serial number needs to be
registered, which is done at program startup or from this dialog,
by highlighting the number and clicking
Register.
Extend Demo - this button is only present when software is
in trial mode. This provides user with information needed to extend
duration of the trial by 14 days or 2000 uses, whichever comes
first. Extension is not additive, so it needs to be performed when
software expired or about to expire to give the most benefit.
Revision History - clicking this button causes software to
receive the revision notes off the server and to display
information about changes contained in individual updates
Validate Install - the purpose of this function
is to analyze the checksum, size and date of program files to
determine which files have been corrupted or modified/replaced
since the program installation. The report is presented with the
list of the mismatched or missing files.
