Office Activation

[Craig]

How can I find out if a product has been activated? I have four sealed copies
of Office XP Pro that I would like to give to employees, but want to make
sure that the CD Keys have not been used. We use a volume license now and
still have some retail copies we bought, so I know they can legally use them,
I just want to make sure they are not going to have to go throught the dance
of registering by phone. Thanks in advance for replies.

Unless you're willing to go around and check every PC you have with a
keyfinder, you won't know till you do the install.
