  2. If successful, you will see the following dialog box.After you get a confirmation that the activation was successful, you no longer require Internet connection when you use the program.

However, every time you launch Boards, you will see a Protection System screen (as below).  Do not click activate again.   Just click OK and Boards by the Numbers will launch.  This screen displays the number of days you have remaining on your 365 day subscription.  DO NOT click on the Activate button.   Your serial number is only valid for one activation and will therefor no longer function.

Note when your license has expired (365 days from your activation).  Uninstall the entire program as it will no longer function.  If you need to continue using Boards by the Numbers, please purchase the latest annual version at our web site.  You will need to purchase, download, install and activate your new version again.  Make sure you uninstall Boards older version before installing the new one.
