Where in the registry can I find the Setup key for Office 2000 pro. I know someone else asked, but in my opinion they didn't offer enough points to be answered. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Look at
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\9.0\Common\General\InstallProductID

If you are looking for the Product ID for Office 2K Pro that is already instlled Start the program and click on [help] and then [about] and you will find the Product ID. If you are just trying to find or change it in the Registry you will find it here. Hkey_Local_Machine\Software\Microsoft\windows\currentVersion\Uninstall\{00000409-78E1-1102-B60F-116097C998E8}(Or something like this!) As you highlight it on the left you will see the ID on the right under [Product ID]. To insure your in the right place read the Display Name it shoud tell what program you are looking at.

This answer varies slightly from the one with the registry path that was already listed here. According to MS this is where it will be located... they do mention that it depends on which OS you are running if it will show will viewing this Reg. key.. good luck..hope it shows:
Launch regedit by selecting Start/Run, typing regedit in the text box, and pressing Enter.
3. Under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, scroll down to Software.
4. Find the Microsoft listing, and look for the directory that contains the software you need to reinstall.
5. Double-click the ProductID listing, and select the middle two number strings (for example, in 53491-460-1656111-49145, select 460-1656111).
6. Press Ctrl-C to copy the CD Key to the Clipboard; then paste it somewhere where you can reuse it. (Perhaps even copy all your keys to a text document, and print them for safekeeping, eh?)
