A CD Key for Office 2000 and Office 10 beta is:

MP4F9-W6C8V-HTCCT-T7M7R-Y7K3Y

with product ID of:
82503-711-0000007-67584

Rumor has it that the 711-0000007 is the only part that matters and it must meet the old nnn-nnnnnn requirements. Also, if the CD Key does not work for you, it has been reported that you can edit the product ID in the registry to match the one shown here and then the CD Key will be accepted (I haven't tried this as I don't have Office 2000).

CDs Key for Office 2000 are:

DR674-KJWQW-HGQKT-WGDBG-4RKY3 with product ID of 450-5693453
Q2CXY-QYYJ4-QPTBH-WPCTB-9J4MM Volume/Corporate CD Key
RX2R4-4RDYW-269QY-7BC3J-XCFVB (Corporate CD Key)
JFD4K-MKCDP-83R4H-7GFCQ-2C9KB Professional English SR1
HQ6DG-JJ73M-C34Q7-W3G4H-CRB9Q UK Pro, Spanish Premium, and U.S. as well as Visio 2000
R7WB4-KQDHY-YTVRF-77JXC-W7898 Spanish Premium
C3KDQ-BJBMM-YVP9B-DQY7V-VBG9G Spanish SR-1, version 9.0.3821
Previously this list had included GC6J3-GTQ62-FP876-94FBR-D3DX8 but Office 2000 has invalidated all installations using this key whenever SR-1 or SR-1A is installed. There is an article talking about this at http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/18683.html. Hope you don't get hit with this 'invalidated registration'.

think you can pull it out of the registry. I know you can get the Windows key out of:
HKEY_Local_Machine>Software>Microsoft>Windows>Current Version.

I'm not going to spend ages reading through the registry, but try running regedit and expand the tree as follows:

HKEY_Local_Machine>Software>Microsoft>Office>

Then browse...

Good luck!
