At work we install the same SQL on a lot of servers, and I hate to keep typing in the same key I would like to have the key fillled in for me. Any ideas on how I can do this.

Thanks
 
CHeck if the application does allow "unattended installs". E.g. windows itself can be installed that way. All software which uses MSI should be capable of it
 
depending on the OS (Windows 2000, XP, or 2003) you can use nLite to create an unattended install disk which will fill in the information needed for setup including the cdkey. Here is the guide for the program

Edit// Oh this is for an app itself not an OS, sorry. And for my misunderstanding, I bring you to this link which might be of use
