I seem to have completely lost my News button from my
toolbars (to open Outlook Express 6 , to read newsgroups).
what i did was, I deleted the button and then decided i
wanted it back. I clicked "add/Remove Buttons" and
then "customise"> "commands". I looked in the "Go"
category liike the outlook 2003 help suggests but i have
looked up and down the list and "news" is no longer
there. how can i get it back?
any help would be most appreciated
 
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
/outnews switch -- that gives you the same result as accessing the
newsreader via the News command in Outlook.
