Part of the requirements of using MS software is that you ensure that you
retain the discs(s) or the proof of the legality of the software. 

Without the discs or proof of ownership of the software both Microsoft and
some members of this group will assume rightly or wrongly that you are using
an illegal copy!!

Since a large number of people are doing just that it is unfortunate for you
if you have misplaced the discs and are one of the few genuine cases that
really did lose the discs!!

I hope that you can solve your problem but suspect that a solution may
involve buying a new license.

Regards

Ian

Yours is one of many asking the same question and I wish I knew.
Your sarcasm is duly noted and it really helps.
