Reading News in Outlook 2003

[dw]

Hello. How do you get the Newsgroups to work in Outlook 2003? I use Outlook
Express to read the news, and I had a shortcut to it in Outlook at the top;
but it stopped working and I removed the button. Now I don't know how to add
again. I've looked under the Go menu, but News is not there anymore. Any
thought? Thanks.

To get the News command back, go back to the Programs tab in Control Panel |
Internet Options and change the default newsreader to Outlook Express. If
OE prompts you to make it your default newsreader the next time you launch
it, click the "Don't ask me again" box and then click the No button.

You may need to reset the menu or toolbar using Tools, customize.
