I think my Office 2003 installation got corrupted somehow (outlook folders are all fvcked up, creating new identities didn't help) and I want to do an uninstall/reinstall. I have the CD that came with my laptop but I don't have my product activation key. I looked everywhere for it in the box and under the laptop but its not there. Is there any way I can get my activation key from the already installed software? 'Help->About' only gives me a Product ID.

I'd rather not pay for a tech call to Microsoft, and I can't get a new ID from the school until Monday.

another option is Tweak XP, the recent versions of that program can retrieve the product keys for windows xp and the ms office programs
