    Any way to register VB Express 2010 without internet?

    I've installed via an ISO downloaded from MS via a link I found on a blog,
    I used my netbook and copied it via USB stick onto my desktop PC which has no internet connection.
    It's working but it says it's an evaluation copy and from my websearches it seems it will expire after 30 days.
    I've already got a key for another one I use elsewhere, but it's probably worthless without internet to actually register

    Is there any way I can register the thing? I assume not, but you never know....
    I'd rather be legit than have to resort to researching hacking it
    Thanks

    Have you tried clicking the Register link or whatever is provided to see if it specifies any option besides online? Have you tried entering the key you have to see if it works? I'm not sure but I think that the app itself verifies the key.

    Thanks, I dialled in my key and it seems to have worked, it doesn't say Evaluation any more, and trying the registration option again it says it's already registered. That's about as hopeful as it gets
    Cheers

    if it says it's registered then it's registered.
