Article #25479: Registry key that tells where IB looks for the license file

Problem:
What is the registry key that tells where InterBase looks for the license file?		

Solution:

For InterBase versions prior to 5.0 , look in :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | Software | Borland | Interbase| Current Version


For InterBase version 5.0, look in this location:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE | Software |InterBase Corp | Interbase| Current Version


Under the 'Current Version' key,  you will find a value called 'RootDirectory'.
This is where InterBase thinks the license file should be located.

*** To view registry keys, run the regedit program under Windows NT/95.
      The command under Windows95 is 'regedit'.  Under WindowsNT,
       it is just  'regedt32'.

Note:
If the license file is not present in this location, you will get a message:

Product Remote Interface not licensed.
