How to obtain a new product key for Office program setup

They *will* still help you with a product ID number for Office 2000. I
called them about a half hour ago and asked them for myself. Of course the
customer service person on the other end had a difficult time understanding
the purpose of my call. Plus it was OBVIOUS she was reading from a script.
(Geez, I hate that!)

Make sure you follow the directions on that page before you call!

Hi
if you reinstalled the application than your product key may still be on
your windows (registry). One way to then look for it is to use the
application SIW.exe (which does not install itself, just reads out data).
Start SIW.exe and use the section Software - secrects and you may just see
your product key displayed.
Download SIW.exe (freeware) at
