Can't fin my newsgroup button on the GO menu!

[Guest]

As I was dragging the newsgroup (NEWS) icon up to the GO menu, I accidentally
let go of the mouse button and the NEWS icon disappeared. I've tried
reinstalling Outlook but to no avail! Help

Assuming you're using Outlook 2003, try the following -- it seems to work for
many:

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,
clear the "Always perform this check..." box and then click the No button.

You may need to reset the Menu Bar and/or restart Outlook and/or reboot your
machine in order to complete the process. Not everyone is reporting success
with this method, but try it and see what happens. If all else fails, you
can always create a desktop shortcut to Outlook Express and include the
/newsonly switch -- that gives you the same result as accessing the
newsreader via the News command in Outlook.
