missing news

[Li'l Roberto]

2 questions

1. I know how to export/import with Outlook Express, is this possible
with Outlook 2002 ?, if so, can someone point me to a FAQ.

2. having just built a server [SBS2003] and a couple of client PCs
,I wish to use news groups as with my previous setup [XP PRO &
Outlook 2002]. However when I try to add news as per help [by dragging
it from the command tab to Go], there is no listing for news,
how do I get it to appear ?.

1. file, export from OE to outlook.

2. 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.

problem No1 solved

problem No2 still exists, the news is not on the command tab no
matter what I do, perhaps a registry hack is needed ?
Any further help appreciated
