Installing newsreader

[Guest]

I dropped the 'news' icon while moving it from the Commands list under Add
Remove Buttons\Customize\Commands tab\Categories\Go, to the 'Go' menu to set
up the newsreader; now I can't find it in t, and can't set up the newsreader.
how can I fix this?

To get the News command back, go to 'Control Panel|Internet
Options|Programs' 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, then click the No button.

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

Thanks, Hal, but that didn't do it! I've tried both, and was unable to gert
the icon back.
However, I've now reinstalled Outlook, and been able to set up the reader OK.

Important Reminder: EXPORT YOUR ADDRESS BOOK and ARCHIVE YOUR MESSAGES (then
make a copy of the archive just in case) before you reinstall, or you'll
loose all the address book entries, and any messages that weren't left on the
server!
