I have to reload office, but i can't find the disk, what do i do?

[Ashley_Galliart]

I had to reload everything on my computer, and i can't find the disk for
office small business, but i have the case with the security key. Is there
anything i can do to get it?

It depends on which version you have. If it's Office 2000, then the answer
is no. If it's XP or 2003, you could try calling MS and getting them to send
you a replacement disk if you have adequate proof that you had it in the
first place.

Um, one exception. If it was Office XP Small Business, the OEM will need to
replace it. That was an OEM only disk.

I was thinking that but I wasn't sure if they've ever sold a retail version
of Small Business. And OEMs will NOT replace it. I know - I used to work for
one. Once it's gone, you're screwed.
