The ID Code is the Product ID number. How you find the Product ID varies
with version of Office you are using {help if you supplied}.

The following applies to all versions of Office that included Outlook or
OneNote as an application included with your Office version. Open either
Outlook or OneNote and go to Help, About. You will find the Product ID
toward the bottom of the About Window. These directions also apply to
Outlook and OneNote that were installed as separate applications from your
Office installation. However, the resulting Product ID will not be the same
as the Product ID for Office.

For Office 2007, open Word {or Excel etc} and click on the Office Icon.
Click on the Word Options button. Select Resources and than select About.
The About windows will include the Office Product ID.

Did you uninstall the Trial and the Activation Assistant before installing retail
version of any Office product
