Newsreader problem...

[r-gordon-7]

I want to be able to invoke the Outlook Express Newsreader from my default
e-mail program, Outlook 2003. Help in Outlook 2003 tells me to put the
"News" command in the Outlook 2003 Go menu as follows:



1. On the Tools menu, click Customize.

2. Click the Commands tab.

3. In the Categories list, click Go.

4. In the Commands list, click News, and drag it without releasing the
mouse, until it rests over the Go menu.

5. When the menu displays a list of commands, point to where you want the
command to appear, and then

release the mouse.



But, what do I do if there is NO "News" to click on in the commands list?
(I've checked several times - it simply isn't there in the Commands list
....)



Thanks,

rgordon

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.

How about if you want to get the news reader for Outlook 2003? Does it
exist? Or, is it only on Outlook Express?

Thanks,

Outlook Express is the newsreader for Outlook 2003, unless you get an
add-in like NewsLook (http://www.ghytred.com/NewsLook/about.aspx)
