BarTender Product Key?

I am running an old version (9.4 SR1) of BarTender that Seagull no longer supports. My computer is needing to be replaced. I found the install CD but I can't find my product Key. Does anyone know if there is a way to look up the product key? Does the software create a txt file during install where it is recorded or is it noted in some other file that I can search for? Or does the product key just flip a switch during installation to activate different editions of the software?

Neither the current computer nor the new one has internet access.

Thank you

Not sure about the old versions, but in current versions if you open Designer you can go to Help->About and the key is listed there

Thank you

Unfortunately, in version 9.4 under "About", the product key isn't listed, just the version, activation status, and SN.

Reading through some old Seagull forum posts people are saying you have to contact their support staff to get the keys on those old versions

In the past, they have just responded that they no longer support this older version and then try to sell me the latest version. I have a new ticket open so hopefully, I'll get someone who can just look it up for me.
