Re: missing product id

If you have lost the key you may try using all 1s then all 2s then all 3s
until it successfully takes the key. Make sure the second section of 3
characters is OEM however. It works for some of MSs earlier versions of
office (even Publisher 98) Since it doesn't have to be activated to update
to SP2b there is no issue.

I have to reinstall Office 97 SBE back onto my reformatted
hard drive. I lost the info for all of the product id #'s that
are needed (a 20 digit code). How can I get the this info.
Thank you in advance,
Wayne
