"Did you know?" Deactivation Popup

An update has been created for both NCO and SNCO that after run will cause a "Did you know" popup to show up with the same frequency as update manager.

First go into help about and verify that the version of GOLD is 4.5.0.1.

to get the updates:

\\mcm-server\AlphaRelease\PDG\4.5\NCO\pdgPatch.EXE

\\mcm-server\AlphaRelease\PDG\4.5\SNCO\pdgPatch.EXE

copy pdgPatch.EXE to the folder where your EXE resides and run it.

next time you run GOLD you'll get the pupup.  Also, after the update the version will be 4.5.0.3.

per Gayle, everything needs to be tested.

XP - El_Duderino
Vista Business - Virtual PC

Tested all areas
Focused on deactivation popup
No issues found

Unrelated issue:
I tested backup and restore on another computer, and found that restoring databases from another computer changes your user code and activation code to that of the initial computer (where the databases were backed up). This was tested with and without running the "Did you know" PDG patch, got the same results either way. AJ says it's because the install code is stored in the database.
