If you have the MSI available, open it up with e.g. Orca, and check the Property table.

another alternative is InstEdit http://www.instedit.com/

If you want to retrieve the product code and upgrade code for installed MSI files, you can try these two answers:
Finding the product code: How can I find the product GUID of an installed MSI setup? (PowerShell).
Finding the upgrade code: How can I find the Upgrade Code for an installed MSI file? (VBScript).
