Can't use newsreader on my portable

R

RDufour

Got a portable with Ofiice 2003 and Outlook 2003 installed. Trying to
customize the menu to add News to the Go menu items.

In the lookup list in the customize dialog I can't find a News item under
the command tabs in any of the available lists.

Anyone know how I can retrieve this missing item so I can use newsreader on
that computer from within Outlook 2003?

Thanks for any help

You'll find that this answer has been posted here countless times.
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.

It's not most counter-intuitive procedure imaginable. It's no wonder no one
remembers it.
