OK, I have now asked the SPSS support (SPSS licensing) about this, my hope is that it could be changed in some special file that has to do with the licensing. (This message has been in SPSS at least 20 year so I don't have any big hopes.) Thanks for the clarifying! /Gunilla

I don't know the details of how that license message is generated, but the text is probably compiled into the error message file for SPSS. I was thinking that maybe that text could be changed for the next release to add a comment about the license type. Of course, SPSS must know how to validate it, so it would be better to correct the code. The text change was just a fallback suggestion.

Thanks for answer Jon, do you mean that it's possible to change the text? If yes: Is that possible to do in a special file in the SPSS folder?

maybe, if they can't prevent the message from appearing, it could be reworded to exempt that case.

Hi, is it possible to hide the warning you get in SPSS Statistics output window every year 1 month before it's time to renew the license (concurrent license). It's a lot of users and the warning text makes the users very stressed, as they think the program will end working.
