Getting to Outlook express from Outlook 97, for newsgroups

[Gerry Abbott]

Hi,
Ive got both Outlook 97 and Outlook2000 on different machines, along with
Outlook express.

Have made a shortcut button to get to news from Out2000, but don't know how
to access News from within Out87.

Is there a way.

I'm not sure if Outlook 97 had the capability to put a News button on a
toolbar. If not, you can create a shortcut on the Outlook Bar -- you'd
create a shortcut pointing to the Outlook Express executable file, followed
by the /newsonly switch. For example, your shortcut's target path might
look like this:

"C:\Program Files\Outlook Express\msimn.exe" /newsonly

The quotes around the file path are necessary because there are spaces in
the path. Also note the necessary space between the file path and the
switch.
