Windows 8 Lost Key Code digits

[Bozet]

Greetings. I have a 2003 Edition of Windows Office and the key code was written on the window envelope that I have it in. The envelope fell victim to the chewing of our cat. I was able to retrieve four groups of numbers and cannot do anything to make out the last 5. I downloaded and ran a free retriever but the code for the 2003 office was not there probably because I had to re-install my O/S about 2 months ago. Can anybody help with this.

Produkey will read a key from any system on which it is installed:

But if you do not have it installed anywhere I am not aware of any other way of recovery.

Is it possible to call MicroSoft and retrieve it that way?

Never heard it being done but I've always found them helpful so worth a try. Guess it would help if you had registered with them.
