Access Licensing System Recommendations?

Does anyone know of a licensing system that can be built into a commercial MSAccess application? We're looking for the following features:

Determines which modules are available
Limits overall number of records in one table (our pricing is based on employee records)
Integrates with or contains a web upgrade feature (checks for a new version, allows download if license is current)

oh ... one more:

Add license key functionality to your source code similar to that used by Microsoft.

Thanks for everyone's suggestions here, I don't know how I missed reviewing/closing this. I agree it should be automatically closed as per mathewspatrick suggestion. Ron
