Xperia pro: unlocking troubles - which sim should be in? and how many attempts?

[greenchair]

Hi there,
Just need some quick advice here. I just bought a (Canadian) Fido-locked xperia pro. I purchased an unlock code from an online company and it did not work. I have only tried it once and would like to know - - how many attempts do I get with this model? And also, which sim card should be in the phone when I try? (I have an old Fido card but I also have my current Swedish sim card that I would like to use (I am living in Sweden).

Help!
Thanks
