HOW DO I OBTAIN A REPLACEMENT CD-KEY?
Oh yea, I forgot, if you will read after you click on "KeyFinder" at the
magicaljellybean.com website, it will direct you to "frequently asked questions". In those questions someone asks why the keyfinder does not find Office 2000 so obviously, it doesn't work on exactly what I am in need of. Go Figure. Any other help you can think of ??

HOW DO I OBTAIN A REPLACEMENT CD-KEY?
Dear Gary,
Does this mean that I cannot find the information that I am needing or do you have another suggestion ? Thanks, Joy "Gary Smith" wrote: That does not work for Office 2000, nor does any other program that retrieves CD keys. Apparently Office 2000 does not actually store the CD key in the registry, even in encrypted form. Bombadil wrote: Go to this link and download this keyfinder software. It works perfectly.

Why is that? Or are you outside of the US?

No key, no install that works..

Reading the answers it appears that you may not be able to replace the key, I'm not sure keys for Office 2000 are available any more? Try this: http://openoffice.org. It's free and it's compatible to a great extent so give it a try and if you don't like it delete it. You'll be out nothing but some time. |

Yes, they are - or at least still were as of spring of this year. I
suggested she call but she said something about needing a credit card to call an 800 number. I don't know why she would think that but I did suggest she call. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "David R. Norton MVP Shell/User" wrote in message ...

HOW DO I OBTAIN A REPLACEMENT CD-KEY?
JoAnn,
The 800 number that I have for Microsoft is "fee based", 800-936-5700, you can only get help for a charge and you can only pay using a credit card. Maybe I'm missing something here but that is what it said when I called it. If you have different information, please let me know. Someone who wrote to me right before your response suggested that I upgrade. Ya know what, that is all fine and good IF I had the money to do so. If an upgrade is free, someone please let me know. I'm sure it's not tho. Thank you for your help and patience JoAnn, you've been great. Hope to hear from you soon if you have other phone info to give me for help.

HOW DO I OBTAIN A REPLACEMENT CD-KEY?
Mike, if you have other suggestions as to how I can upgrade at no cost,
please let me know. I would truly appreciate it. My knowledge of "upgrading" is that I need to go out and PURCHASE a newer copy of MS Office or download a newer copy that COSTS and I DO NOT have the cash to do so at this time, that is why I am running around crazily trying to get the copy that I already have to work once again. It crashed a while back and I had to clean the hard drive and then re-install everything, and well, you know the rest of the story. When I went to get my MS Office 2000 Pro out of storage to reinstall it, I realized that I did not have the Product Key to reinstall it with. (the yellow sticker is no longer ledgible and barely even there anymore). Any suggestions on how to upgrade at no cost ????????????? "Mike Hall" wrote: No key, no install that works..
