Gee,

All you guys sure know a lot!  :) Thank you for good ideas.

In answer to above, "No, no dishonorable intention." I just would like
to place a number in a file somewhere so that a piece of software will
(eventually) "expire" and I recognize that "todays date" on such a
file is not a good way to go!  <g>

Thank you!
