The hard drive on my computer needs to be replaced. How can I uninstall
Office 2004 and recover the product key so I can reuse it when I put in
my new drive?

MacOffice doesn't act like that.  You just reuse the CD key, which you
should still have on the case/paperwork that came with the program.  Since
it doesn't have activation, there's no problem with this.

To remove the program from your computer, but not your data, use the Remove
Office tool (in apps/office 2004/additional tools)
