From: JSpence2003 on 3 Mar 2010 12:16 I have a stack of sleeves from my company's ActionPack subscriptions, that the CDs were removed from and not replaced properly...how can I find out what software the product key is for? Does Microsoft have a reverse lookup thing?
From: ybS2okj on 3 Mar 2010 12:27 NO. It is not possible to know but a bit of common sense would do the trick. First determine what software you have got on your system. Then locate the original CDs for these software. Finally, create a test system and try installing the software from these CDs using the serial numbers you have. The chances are you are likely to have Windows XP Professional and/or Office Professional products. There aren't many M$ products in common circulation! hth "JSpence2003" <JSpence2003(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:6E20E803-A627-400F-83D4-7E7118A8F91E(a)microsoft.com... >I have a stack of sleeves from my company's ActionPack subscriptions, that > the CDs were removed from and not replaced properly...how can I find out > what > software the product key is for?
