Evaluation
You can use evaluate Elegant Grid for 60 days for free. During the evaluation period, a special red label appears at the bottom of each grid control on a form in the Windows Forms Designer. Each time you run an application that uses an evaluation copy of the Elegant Grid, a special window indicating about that is displayed in the background. When the evaluation period expires, you will not be able to create a grid instance at run time. Please contact us at support@prof-uis.com if you need to extend the evaluation period.
Design-Time Licensing
When purchasing the Elegant Grid, you get a license key. To install the license key, run the Elegant License Manager tool (See Figure 1), which is available from the Start/Programs menu. This tool allows you to install or uninstall license keys for different Elegant components. Click Install License... and paste the license key into the Install License dialog box. The installed license key removes the red label indicating that an evaluation copy is used.

Run-Time Licensing
To disable the background window indicating that an evaluation copy of the Elegant Grid is used, just specify the license key in your code before the first use of the grid control: [C#]
Elegant.Grid.GridLicenser.LicenseKey =
"XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX";
[VB.NET]
Elegant.Grid.GridLicenser.LicenseKey =
"XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX"
