+
+## Description
+
+I work in an OpenEdge environment and need to activate my Telerik UI for .NET WinForms license key. My projects, however, do not use NuGet packages. How can I activate the Telerik UI for .NET WinForms without using the `Telerik.Licensing` package?
+
+## Solution
+
+The following tutorial will demonstrate how to set up your license key in the OpenEdge environment.
+
+1. Go to the [Setting Up Your Telerik UI for .NET WinForms License Key](https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/licensing/license-key#downloading-the-license-key) and follow the first two sections of the article.
+	1. Downloading the License Key
+	1. Activating the Telerik UI for .NET WinForms Components
+	
+1. Go to the [License Keys page](https://www.telerik.com/account/your-licenses/license-keys) in your Telerik account.
+
+1. On the Telerik UI for .NET WinForms row, click the **View key** link in the **SCRIPT KEY** column. Copy only the string in the first Telerik.Licensing.EvidenceAttribute("key"). 
+
+	![copy-license-key](images/add-license-key-openedge.png)
+
+1. Now we need to register the copied license key above.
+
+	````ABL
+
+	CONSTRUCTOR PUBLIC Form1 (  ):        
+		// ActivePerpetual script key	
+		Telerik.Licensing.TelerikLicensing:Register("Your License Key").
+		
+		InitializeComponent().
+
+		THIS-OBJECT:ComponentsCollection:Add(THIS-OBJECT:components).
+		CATCH e AS Progress.Lang.Error:
+			UNDO, THROW e.
+		END CATCH.
+
+	END CONSTRUCTOR.
+	````
+	>important The license key needs to be registered before initializing our controls. In the above scenario, the license key is registered before the InitializeComponent() method is executed.
+
+1. Add a reference to the `Telerik.Licensing.Runtime.dll`.
+
+>Do not publish the script license key snippet in publicly accessible repositories. This is your personal license key.
