Default Expiring the Old program in Excel.

You could may use something with BuiltinDocumentProperties and CreationDate
in the Workbook_Open and test if
< DateAdd("m", -6, Now())
Check the help for these terms.

Dear All,
I'm making some programs (Excel with VBA) for Engineers use.
I will revise the program every 6 months and send it to my branch people
(Engineers)
The problem is even though I'm mentioing my revision every time in my
program, some time our people may forget and they are using the old

version.
I'm asking them to delete the old version and use the latest but in vain.

I just want to ask one thing whether we can able to provide some expiry

date
for that program (in the form of VB Coding) so that even though if the

people
use the old version, it wil never open (or) activate. Hence people may

aware
to use the latest version.
Is it Possible in EXCEL WITH VBA?
Please advise.
Regards,
Anand.
