Tip for Week 10/11/04

 

Do you know how to get your serial number from the installed copy of AutoCAD on your machine?  How about finding that license agreement to see if you can install AutoCAD on a machine at home. 

The answers to the questions are sitting in a dialogue box call About AutoCAD that can be opened from the Help menu pull-down.  Simply choose the about listing and the serial number is listed in the upper left hand corner below the header and the listing of who the software is licensed to.  More correctly, who's name was typed in on installation.  Picking the Product Information button will expand the listings to include more information.  The licenses agreement can be read by picking the License Agreement button.

Be careful as to whether or not your license is per machine, or whether it is per user.
