UGH... I think I'll just run down and buy office. That way I have all the
stuff...
Thanks,
Jay

I'm surprised, since that was not my experience with Dell. I got Office XP
SBE installed on my Dell, and the cardboard case in which it came clearly
stated: "Do Not Lose This CD Case. You will need to refer to the Product CDs
and Product Key located on the Certificate of Authenticity every time you
install this software. Be sure to store this case in a safe place."

I'm afraid you will have to call Dell. Mine came that same way, the keys
to
the programs were on a piece of paper within the pack of coupons, rebate
offers etc. packed in the box. Easy to throw away if you aren't looking.

Sorry about the multi post, my browser shut down after submission and it
took
me a while to find the discussion group. Sorry..

My Dell 4400 came only with 6 CD's in white envelopes (No Box), no CD
Key
was present. I had to do this one other time when my XP Pro crashed due
to
installing FixPack#2.

I had to re-install my XP Pro OS. I need to reinstall MS Works

computer (DELL 4400) did not come with the Key (?). Any idea on
who I
can
call to get the Key re-issued.
