how to find cd key

[Guest]

Well, here is my predicament:
my office has 5 pc with 5 Office XP license. The problem is the person who bought the systems didn't note down which CD belong to which pc. Now one of the pc died and I had to replace the hard disk. Since I can't activate office xp on 2 pc's, I tried to find the office cd key in the windows2000 registry on the existing pc's but all I can find is the windows cd key. Where have there hidden the office xp cd key? Do I have to try activate the 5 office cd's one by one?
any help is appreciated.

unfortunately keyfinder only finds the cd-key for windows2000.
I call it quits.
