Object Method - ActivateComputerForDevelopment

Parent Object - ProductLicense

Returns - Boolean

Name: ActivateComputerForDevelopment

Parameters: 1. strAccountNumber (String - Your EasyHL7 Account number)

2. strPassword (String - Your EasyHL7 Account password)

3. strOwnerComment (String - A comment that identifies the computer/installation/customer).

IMPORTANT: Successfully calling this method WILL consume one (1) of your available DEVELOPMENT licenses for each unique computer it is called from. Calling this method multiple times from the SAME computer (to activate components in different .Net project folders) will have no adverse effect since EasyHL7 licenses are 'per-computer'.

Description: **AN INTERNET CONNECTION IS REQUIRED** (secured by Verisign). Will activate the computer in DEVELOPMENT mode by producing (or retrieving a file called EasyHL7.lic) into the EasyInstallationFolder. The file 'EasyHL7.lic' is THE SAME FILE that is produced when activating the EasyHL7 ActiveX Components. So, if you have previously activated the EasyHL7 ActiveX Components, all you have to do is copy the file EasyHL7.lic from the folder where the ActiveX DLLs were installed (typically the windows\system32 folder) to the EasyInstallationFolder.

Parameter Notes:

1.	strAccountNumber is the 8-10 digit account number assigned to you when you registered at the EasyHL7 website (www.hermetechnz.com). If you don't know what that is, it's displayed prominently in the License Manager.

2.	strPassword is your login password for the EasyHL7 Website and the License Manager

3.	strOwnerComment is defined by you. It can contain a maximum of 50 characters and should describe / identify the computer-customer-installation. This parameter plays an integral part of license management as it allows you to identify a specific installation to customer service for support purposes.

Programming Note: If the computer has been previously activated, then strOwnerComment is ignored and the previous license is retrieved from our secure server.
