The following will allow you to generate and apply a Quin-C license from an Quin-C Order Number.

Your Quin-C Order Number will typically be contained in an email entitled "Thank you for your recent Quin-C order!", and will be sent from licensemanager@accessdata.com.

If you have not received or have misplaced an expected Quin-C Order Number, please contact your Sales representative or sales@accessdata.com.
