Hi! As far as I know, the property you mentioned consists of one or more groups of alfa-numeric characters, in an order specified by you. The characters may be significant to the validation of the key or may be not. The validation of a SN is the result of a methematic algorithm: the sum of all the significant characters must be divisible with 7. For more detailed info check the .NET help under the Deployment topic. Yet, I don't know how you can implement a validation algotithm of your own as I faced this too. Hope it'll help you.
