Hi Ronnie

When you set up the "evaluation property," are you checking the box in the security tab (publication properties) "display standard evaluation dialogue"? This will show the default Opus screens for evaluation.

If you've set up a registration ID on the same security tab and entered it into the "Publication Evaluation Key Generator" (separate utility program accompanying Opus) along with the "User Publication Code" unique to the computer on which you are testing, it should produce an unlock code which you can copy and paste into the evaluation dialogue box to permanently unlock the publication.

While I suspect you are already doing all of these, I thought I'd mention them so you can "double" check.

I often test the evaluation mode by setting a 5 day expiration, temporarily resetting the system clock to 5+ days and re-booting the test executible file publication to try the unlock code. I've found that once permanently unlocked, if I want to test again, I've had to generate a new publication ID in the security tab to have a new evaluation copy to test.

If I haven't shed any useful light on the problem, I hope others with more skill and knowledge can add comments to help you with a solution.

Kind Regards,
Stephen

PS Don't forget to reset the system clock back after completing testing.
