Not sure how to explain this one but I'll try. I built an application. When it loads it checks for first run date in the registry and then displays an alert box telling the user how many days he has left in his trial period. I did this with simple math that sets the number of days remaining into a variable. I want to pass the variable contents to swish. ( ie I want swish to tell the user how many days remaining and then display an ok button ) Any idea as to how to do this ?
